It is related to the '+' sign you're seeing in the group names.

It seems your home dir is different for some reason. What does your /etc/nsswitch.conf look like (if you have one)? What does getent passwd <your username> print in a local mintty session, and what does it print in a remote session via rlogin? Why on earth are you still using rlogin anyway instead of ssh? > It *looks*, at this point that my userid isn't being passed from inetd to > rlogind > so it can read the ".rhosts" file in my WIN-HOME (USERPROFILE or > HOMEDRIVE:\HOMEPATH). Your userid is bound to you token's SID. For accessing .rhosts the home dir in your passwd entry must match.
