Further detail:

mpdcheck -s

in one cygwin window, plus

mpdcheck -c computername portnumber

in another cygwin window actually produce the output as shown in the 
installation guide
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/documentation/files/mpich2-doc-install.pdf
in Appendix A.1.1., page 28 bottom, page 29 top. It's just mpdtrace and 
also things like
mpiexec -n 1 /bin/hostname
which do not work and bring back the response that mpd cannot be reached.

So I figure it's not a network / port problem?

Cheers,
