It's totally embarrassing, but restarting the server solved the problem. 
Doh!

Apparently I didn't restart the server after renaming it and as a result 
cygwin got the two names mixed up. I had made sure to double check the 
Window settings and they showed the expected values. My excuses for not 
trying the obvious and thanks a lot for the answer.
