Because it does not seems to be a problem with bind, rsync, ssh or any other program but with cygwin and/or the underlying OS itself. So i wanted to collect this into one thread.

I've uninstalled the Vodafone Connection Manager where ByteMobile was part of, but the problem remains without ByteMobile (see new cygcheck2.out attachment).  :(

I've uninstalled Panda too (thanx to my network admin). But this also does not solve the problem.  :(

I've read them again and again, but could not find any solution for my case.

Hmmmm? That's a pity. But as seen in the mailing lists i'm not the only one with such problems. May be there is generic workaround for this? Or a guide line how to identify the dodgy app?

I'll try my very best. But some hints from the cygwin core team would be really helpful.
