Hey everyone! I recently downloaded Cygwin because I want to run some .sh files, but I'm overwhelmed by the number of packages available. Can anyone suggest which packages I should install to get started? Thanks a lot!

What exactly do these bash scripts do? If it's a VPN setup, that’s a whole different ballgame and might not work well in Cygwin due to compatibility issues.

Running a VPN in Cygwin can be tricky since it's not designed for that kind of application to function fully integrated with Windows. If you really want to run an .sh file, I can help you figure out how to do it outside of Cygwin instead.

You might actually not need Cygwin for what you're trying to do. It could be easier to just read through the shell script to figure out what dependencies it has, then install those specific binaries instead based on any errors you encounter.
