Well, there's precious little detail to go on here.  But a quick check
of the email archives (or web in general) likely would have unearthed
this reference:

<https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-10/msg00275.html>

 From the date and the reference to Windows 8, I think you could conclude
that this is a Windows 8 issue and that any recent (1.7.25 or later version
of the Cygwin package would resolve this - we're at 1.7.32 ATM).  So if
updating the affected systems to the latest Cygwin package doesn't help,
please follow the problem reporting guidelines found at the link below
so folks here will have the necessary boot-strap information to help
diagnose the problem you're seeing.
