slogin: Connection reset by peer since last cygwin update

Hi.
I've been using cygwin on Windows 2000 for a while now and try to keep it 
up-to-date by running setup and accepting any updates.

Since the last update (November 27) which I think only updated  the X server 
I keep getting disconnected from my linux box after logging in with 'slogin 
-C -l <user> <ip-address>'  or  'slogin -C -X -l <user> <ip-address>'.
sometimes I get disconnected after a few seconds other times it takes a few 
minutes.
The message I get is 'Connection reset by peer' .

If I connect to the linux box again I can see, using 'ps -ef', that the 
previous connection is still alive and any programs I started are still 
running.

This worked fine before the update. There were no changes to the Linux box 
(SuSE 8.2 with updates).
I can't rule out general network problems (company network), could that be a 
possible cause?

Where can I look for hints as to what the problem is?

Thanks
Con
