Saber,
First off, is the line quoted below actually in /etc/passwd, or did you
type it in? If you did, it looks like you made a typo in the SID (146882
instead of 156882).
Secondly, Cygwin UIDs are 16 bit, so it cannot handle UIDs larger than
65535. Change your UID (the third ":"-separated field in the line you
quoted above) to something less than 65535 (25810 should work).
Thirdly (and this is a guess), you might have to play with the "smbntsec"
setting, or the ClearCase permissions on those shares. There were also
some messages about ClearCase not working with Cygwin (although not
recently). A google search on "MVFS filesystem" should turn up some
matches.
