  I don't think winpcap has been ported to compile under cygwin yet, and it's
one of those things where there's a lot of very OS-specific stuff that can't
be emulated by cygwin.  I think it *might* work if you use the native windows
binaries, headers and link-libs in a cygwin application, it would be worth
trying, but as for compiling winpcap/libpcap from source under cygwin, forget
about it unless you're ready to put in probably a month or two's hard work.

    cheers,
      DaveK
