I know this is heading off topic...

I like to install the win32 version of ISC BIND9, which gives a
unix-like dig / host / nslookup / named / rndc.  (It also allows you to
run your own caching resolver, which you can appreciate if you happen to
have a flakey ISP with poor nameservers.)

It would be nice to have a true Cygwin-ported set of netutils though, no
doubt about it.
