There is loads of stuff in the list archives on this. If you have local
user accounts on the Win machine (rather than domain accounts) and
access using shares using the unix account then the UID/GID are
different, you can set CYGWIN too some value - I think it is smbnontsec,
someone can correct me if I cam wrong.
Using a different user for authentication on the samba share that the
current user will work fine under win but because of the UID changes
will not work under cygwin unless the smbnontsec is added to the CYGWIN
enviroment variable.
A search of the archives will give you plenty more on this.
