Thank you very much for your response.. Do you know if theres is any plan to support IPv6 in the near future? THanks, Fernando inet_pton() is an IPv6 function and Cygwin has no support for IPv6. You'll have to patch the application if it expects to find IPv6 functions. Brian Fernando

I am having problems with the IE5 settings in the setup program (can't get a list of download sites). Does anybody know what user-agent cygwin uses? The proxy script here rejects all connections except from IE or Firefox user-agents and I have a hunch that this is the problem. Thanks in advance,

Re: IE5 settings in setup.exe

Cywgin might not require a specific broser, but the proxy server might. Hence, it might block cygwin if it sends an unauthorized user-agent. I am not sure whether it can block "programs" per se: if the user agent string is the same as IE's can the proxy recognize it comes from cygwin? On 6/17/05,
