Cygwin

So the tool I was mentioning is Cygwin.

A very useful tool for you Linux heads out there. Also very useful to the Windows System Admin especially when trying to fix QoS issues with VoIP phone software as the ping application for Linux is a lot better at times than the built in windows one.

I will show how to use this very useful app in my next post but it goes a long way in making your life a lot easier as you begin to work smarter not harder.

So the next post will take you down why it is better than say having a VM on your machine at times.
