setup.exe 2.573.2.3 signature failure

- Subject: setup.exe 2.573.2.3 signature failure
As a newcomer to cygwin, my attempts to download from ctgwin.com or a
number of mirror sites all failed with signature errors. WHy do I get
this problem? The error I get is:
Setup.ini signature http://cygwin.com/setup.bz2.sig from
http//cygwin.com failed to verify.
I have managed to download cygwin using the setup.exe from redhat.
On a related topic, is there any way to change the URL for the
download? Or do you just add download sites then highlight the one you
wish to use?
Finally, I am trying to build some C sources using cygwin but the
build fails as it is not finding some libraries: libsocket.a, libnsl.a
and libxnet.a. I've searched both the package lists and the installed
libraries without success. I am sure that the functions defined in
these libraries do exist in the cygwin distribution but may be in
differently named libraries. Can anybody help?
Many thanks,
George Nelson
