   Hi,

   I'm using cygwin latest install. I did:

mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
mkgroup -l > /etc/group

   When I log as administrator or as user (postgres), 'who' gives the 
proper name. However, when I try 'su Administrator' or 'su postgres' it 
rejects the password. I can log on win2000 using those passwords.
   What am I doing wrong?

   Thanks,
   Maurício
