Problem Starting Tracker

I am having trouble getting the example here running:
http://lucene.apache.org/hadoop/docs/api/overview-summary.html.  I've got
cygwin and ssh set up correctly as well as edited all the environment
variables correctly.  When I run the start all scripts, I get this error for
the job tracker:

It then loops with the bind error forever.  I'm not sure what file the
tracker is looking for or if this is a problem translating between
cygwin/windows paths.  Which paths should my hadoop.xml files use?  Do I
need to change the tmp directories from the defaults?  I've also tried
changing the port number, but I always get the bind error.
