Subject: Trouble using whoami and others
4 Apr 1998 19:42:15 -0800 :
Message-ID: <006401bd5fab$f3493730$6d66b498.cygnus.gnu-win32@pclink.dynip.com>
Mime-Version: 1.0
To: <gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com>

Don't know how to fix this problem;
I or another user types 'whoami' and get this responce:

whoami: cannot find username for UID 500

Exactelly how do I go about fixing this problem?
Obviously the user has a username, it's NT. No username, no access. But why
isn't the whoami application (among others) picking that information up?
Any help would be terrific, and thanks...
