The mount table is stored in the registry. System mounts should be 
stored in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2. 
Additionally mounts listed as noumount are drives that are mapped by 
Windows. So then your C drive is not umountable. Nor is your D drive. 
Strangely your original mount table shows an F drive and now you don't 
have an F drive. Methinks you may have changed more in your system than 
merely join a domain. Perhaps your old F drive was a drive you mapped by 
hand?

So for your system mounts you should have entries in the local machine 
area of your registry for /, /usr/bin and /usr/lib. Under those entries 
there are 3 values each: A string value named "(Default)", type REG_SZ 
with the value not set, another string value named "native", type REG_SZ 
with the Windows path to the mount point (e.g. C:/Cygwin for "/") and a 
binary value named "flags", type REG_DWORD usually set to 0x0a.

Non system mount points are stored in the 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts 2v area in a 
similar fashion. Therefore user mount are user specific (i.e. you'll 
only see them if you log in - if another user logs into your system then 
they won't see them).
