You thought that was weird I just logged onto the box to test and look
in the security event log and it just started working. No changes
that I can find have been made, it was even the same cygwin prompt
from the previous tests. If I find out what caused the change I will
report back as I have another identical machine left to install.

Very strange, most appreciate your help on this.

    Regards
