This has been discussed on the mailing list before, search the
archives. I noticed it with cygwin-1.3.10 on NT4, and found that
enabling ntsec solved the problem for me. But there are lots of
things to check, like the correctness of your /etc/passwd and
/etc/group files, rights given to the inetd service account,
execute permissions on the applications and cygwin1.dll, ...
It's a mystery, to me, why it fails without ntsec but works with
ntsec, all other things being the same. But I've stopped worrying
about it, now that I use ntsec.
Good luck. Report back if you have something new to add.

David
