Problems after move to Windows 2003 domain

A month ago I had cygwin working perfectly. Then we upgraded to a
Windows 2003 domain.
I still have the same XP work station but now when I run startx cygwin
crashes with errors about the clipboard. I have tried disabled the
shared clipboard feature and the X server will now come up.
I can run xeyes fine. However when I try to run xterm the CPU load on
the Xserver goes straight to 100% and stays there. I have done an strace
on xterm and I can see it is waiting on a read from the tcp socket to
the X server, after 20 minutes the Xserver sends it data and up it
comes.
I have tried a variety of other programs and they all behave like xterm
(except xeyes). I don't have any idea how to go about working out what
it is doing. Can anyone help?

P.S. Since the domain move I have rerun mkpasswd and mkgroup, it didn't
make any difference. I have also upgraded to the latest cygwin with the
online installer; again it made no difference.
