I'm trying to install cygwin on a number of workstations and want to
make it as automated as possible.

The LAN does not have direct internet access, so I setup an internal
mirror containing only the few packages we're interested in.

I tried running setup -q --root c:\cygwin --site
http://internal.site/path/to/files, but setup still wants to download
the list of mirrors from cygwin.com, which blocks until it times out or
is terminated.

Is there a way to do install directly from a mirror site?

thanks
