Does Cygwin's setup support HTTPS, or is it HTTP only?I think it's HTTP only at the moment. I have no idea how difficult it'd be to add HTTPS, but if you want to do it correctly it would add quite a bit of stuff. Note that HTTPS only gives you opaqueness, not any extra security.
That's really helpful - thanks. I'll switch to plain old HTTP. Dave. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
