Hi,
ssh foo.company.com returns an error "ssh: Could not resolve hostname
foo.company.com: Non-recoverable failure in name resolution"
I can ssh by using IP addresses.
C:/windows/system32/ping.exe resolves names
Cygwin's dig and nslookup commands work fine; they resolve names.
Cygwin's ssh and ping do not seem to be able to resolve hostnames under cygwin
on win7/x64 (under vmware fusion with NAT).
Cygwin's ping returns the error: "ping: socket: Operation not permitted"
Seemed like some firewall permission setting somewhere? I tried turning off the
windows firewall temporarily but that did not change things.
I see these threads but did not see a resolution to the issue

My cygwin installation is up-to-date (updated everything).
cygcheck attached (changed username & company to foobar everywhere)
