- Subject: can't download list of mirrors
I can't access http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/mirrors.lst at all and the
cygwin installer is failing as a result.
Any idea what I should do?
Here's my cygwin installation log:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
For the curious, here is what I get when I try to wget the file:
--10:01:31-- http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/mirrors.lst
(try:20) => `mirrors.lst'
Connecting to sources.redhat.com[0.0.0.0]:80... failed: Bad file
descriptor.
Giving up.
Please help.
