I don't know if this works for Cygwin binaries but definitely works for windows apps on NT and Win 9x.

The problem has occurred with both B20.1 and yesterday's Net Release. I tried manually adding records to /cydrive/c/WINDOWS/HOSTS.SAM and /etc/hosts, to no avail. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
