The Metasploit Framework 3.3 release uses Cygwin as a compatibility environment for the Windows platform.
|
||
|
|
The specific version of Cygwin used is a CVS snapshot from August 24th, 2009:
|
||
|
|
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/cygwin-src-20090824.tar.bz2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A patch was applied to allow other copies of Cygwin to run in parallel to Metasploit.
|
||
|
|
This patch can be found in: patches/cygwin-snapshot-20090824-1_version.diff
|
||
|

|
In accordance with the terms of the GPL, source code for all GNU and Cygwin packages
|
||
|
|
included in the Windows installation of the Metasploit Framework are available by
|
||
|
|
request. With the exception of the Cygwin patch above and items listed below, all
|
||
|
|
binaries are taken from a standard Cygwin 1.7 installation.

||
