whats your CYGWIN env variable set to?
Whats the output of cygcheck (as per the submitting a bug report topic
on the cygwin homepage)?.

What you are observing is not normal, it indicates something wrong. My
guess would be an incorrectly configured corporate network, and your
network security info resolution is coming over a router with no local
Domain master browser (or something of the sort).
