Siegmar,
There have been problems reported with sunrpc related to
a disabled network connection. Does you machine have a
network connection (wireless, or a secondary ethernet
card, etc.) that isn't active?
[Redirecting to the cygwin mailing list so any good info
that comes out of this conversation can help the next poor
unfortunate soul with this problem...]
