Not to put too fine a point on it, but if you're
trying to run a Linux system on a Windows machine,
why not download the FREE VMWare Server 2.0 and
install Linux as a VM?

You can give the VM a couple of virtual network
adapters and use one for a host-only network and
the other for connectins on your "real" network.

Thi smight be easier than making Cygwin what it is not.
