Two pointers, both from /usr/doc/Cygwin/inetutils-1.3.2.README:

- Before starting any program, be aware that all neccessary configuration
  files in /etc have to be generated first! Call

	iu-config

  once after you installed the inetutils the first time. That
  generates some files: [...]

- No user mount point is valid anymore! You have to install all
  your mount points in the system mount table. This doesn't
  change after you have logged in to a normal user account eg.
  via telnet/rlogin. [...]
