Hello,
I find that my cygwin installation complains that it has no name for me: I
have no name!@DECAV68461 ~
I get this whenever I start the cygwin shell. Also when I do an whomai I
get:
whomai: cannot find username for UID 4276.
A 'id -un' gives me:
id: cannot find name for user ID 4276
Some of the files and directories do show a user 4276 in the mkgroup_.
My name is in the /etc/passwd file:
SYSTEM:*:18:544:,S-1-5-18::
Administrators:*:544:544:,S-1-5-32-544::
Administrator:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:500:513:U-DECAV68461\Administrator,S-1-5-
21-484763869-1958367476-725345543-
500:/home/Administrator:/bin/bash
Guest:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:501:513:U-DECAV68461\Guest,S-1-5-21-484763869-195

leero:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:135348:10513:leero,U-NORTHGRUM\leero,S-1-5-21-206
3937484-1545362895-883519231-125348:/cygdrive/c:/bin/bash
I'm leero, the machine name is DECAV68461. I log onto DECAV68461 under the
NORTHGRUM domain.
Does anyone know where this 4276 comes from? I 'm having problems building
s/w that use /usr/bin/install b/c the latter claims I have no permission to
change ownership of files.
Am I missing some setup steps?
Thanks for your help.
Robert
