Did you reinstall windows, or do an in-place upgrade? If it was
in-place, your cygwin install should have just kept working...
If its not working, or if you deleted it, you'll need to repair this.
If the cygwin install stopped working, your /etc/passwd and /etc/group
files are possibly (probably?) incorrect. You can repair this by moving
them and re-running the postinstall scripts from /etc/setup/postinstall.
Alternatively, if you deleted the cygwin install... your log files will
be in /var/log/ and that is auto created by setup if the mount table
exists.
