Whenever I run ssh inside of cygwin on Windows 7 I get the error:

ssh: Could not resolve hostname ... Non-recoverable failure in name resolution
lost connection

If I try the same command immediately after the error, it works without issue. If I wait too long to try again, I get the error again.

This doesn't happen for me on XP. Any ideas why ssh always fails the first time?
