The links to mirrors on http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html point to directories, not to the roots of the servers Try http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ with or without the training slashes, or maybe http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/ Good luck, - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID.
