The same procedure is used to install Cygwin in the Computer Science Labs. These instructions assume that you are installing Cygwin (for the first time) on a machine that does not already have Cygwin installed. Our mirror is updated every August. While this may mean that we are not running the latest version, it does ensure that the Fall and Spring semester of each school year are consistent. For this reason we recommend that you use our mirror to install Cygwin.

Note: These instructions have been tested on Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3. They should work on prior versions of XP and on XP Home.

We do not run Windows Vista or 7 in our labs, therefore we cannot guarantee that these instructions will work on either version. Note: Our mirror server changed after the initial creation of this document. All references to our mirror have been changed to the correct server; however, pictures were not re-generated so all the pictures still reference the old server.

Please make sure to use the server listed under the 'Where to get Cygwin section.' Where to get Cygwin Cygwin can be downloaded from the website or from the Computer Science (). Multi-User Environment Set the file premissions on /tmp and /var/log for the account type 'Users' and/or 'Everyone'.

This will add our mirror to the list of “Available Download Sites”. Figure 9Here you will choose the packages that need to be installed.

The simplest method is to install everything; however, Cygwin is quite big and this could take a while to download (even using our mirror). The package selection below is not a full install, but it is still quite large. It does, however, provide a very quick and easy way to ensure that you have selected all the packages you need to install for your Computer Science classes. Next to each category you will see a circle with two arrows on it, followed by the installation type. The default installation type is “Default”.

This selects the minimum number of packages needed in order to have a running version of Cygwin. If you click on the circle with two arrows, you will notice that the installation type changes from “Default” to “Install” to “Reinstall” and, finally, to “Uninstall”. • First, change the installation type on the category “All” to “Install”.
