Check the IP used on both sides, check that there isn't a nasty router/firewall messing stuff up, check the netcat version bundled in Cygwin (for the -p thing), that's pretty much it  .

I have a friend who has faffed around trying to get that working under slackware for WEEKS. everytime I visit we have another go. damn thing just REFUSES to play ball over usbnet. (Slackware 13.1 13.37 and 14.0?(1)? now all do same under blackbox window manager, I have tested the device on a windows laptop and it works fine)
So moral of that story, test on as many platforms as you can. Slackware + Blackbox = nightmare. for example.
: ) HTH
EDIT: Oh. The last time I was there we finally got it to work over wifi.
I should explain that this guy has more security than a bank. virtual gateways on multiple interface cards, dual firewalls and passwords that make your eyes bleed. Hidden AP, Sandbox, Root required for all things useful but root login denied to everything but the most obscure route and services ported to non-standard ports... OMG I could go on.. if you can think of some security thing? he has it.
So yeah... not your standard install. But it works via wifi fine now (we added the relevant holes in the black ice at last )
