I gave the wrong URL in the first posting. It's 
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/xfree/cygwin1.fixed-netdev.dll.bz2

The fix for win95 was to read the correct registry keys. Win2k uses 
a newer mechanism. But it seems they only handle ethernet devices and
does not handle token ring adapters. You can start in the cygwin source 
at winsup/cygwin/net.cc in function get_2k_ifconf.
