Try installing the 'rebase' package from 'setup.exe', stopping all Cygwin
services (like 'sshd'), exiting all Cygwin programs (including the (bash) 
shell), and from a DOS box/cmd.exe prompt, run "C:\cygwin\bin\rebaseall",
assuming your Cygwin installation is in "C:\Cygwin".  Do this on the 
server machine.  Assuming you get no errors in this process, this should
help.  If it doesn't, please follow the problem reporting guidelines at
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.  Provide cygcheck information for both
the server and the client machine, in addition to the other information
requested.
