Thank you! Thanks for providing a mirror. Can you give the approximate geographical location in a similar format to our existing list [1]?

OK, I'll leave the location unspecified. I gave it a brief test with our setup program and things seem to work correctly (which shouldn't be surprising since it just uses the wininet API to fetch files). However, it seem our mirror checking script seems to get told "403 Forbidden" when it tries to check if you are up to date. Can you tell me (privately, if you like) what User-Agent: it should present? Or suggest another mechanism to allow it access? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

While I can completely disable the check without issues, if you want to carry a specific UA feel free to do it and I will then white list based on UA. Let me know when you are ready.

Thank you! You know, there are lots of mirrors of Cygwin where you can get the latest.
