 To me this indicates problems with user authentication.

That is the contents of "/etc/group" and|or "/etc/passwd" files
or something else that is related to those.

 To be able to tell - more information is needed. (Please do read
www.cygwin.com/problems.html for instructions)
 i.e. _attach_ the output of "cygcheck -svr" to an email and send it here.

 No need to be sorry for that, IMO!
