Oops, thought I also showed passwd: C:\NCygwin\bin>cat ..\etc\passwd lemkemch:unused:12729:10513:U-INA-DE01\lemkemch,S-1-5-21-1373454394-1654746546-1846952604-2729:/home/lemkemch:/bin/tcsh > >> C:\NCygwin\bin>id >> uid=4294967295(Unknown+User) gid=4294967295(Unknown+Group) >> groups=545(Users),555 >> (Remote Desktop Users) > >what does `mkpasswd -d | grep -i lemkemch' print?

My installation is really old and the passwd certainly is from before that domain change. >The unknown user is >totally weird.
