Hello,

I've just installed Cygwin on WinNT workstation (but with FAT filesytems) 
with the automatic "setup.exe" installer.

The user account that has been created (and which is the default account 
when I launch bash) is "Administrator". Cygwin has not used at all my NT 
username (at least it is not present in /etc/passwd). So:

- Is it normal ?

- Is there a specific procedure to create an account
  related to an NT account, or should I just do it
  manually by adding an entry in /etc/passwd, with
  the same username ?


Maybe it's a trivial question, but I couldn't something in FAQ, the user 
guide, or the archives.

Many thanks for your help,

Pierre
