OK, that's clearer.  But it still doesn't clarify why you think this is a
Cygwin issue.  Cygwin does not provide an ext2/ext3 or cramfs file system 
driver.  It is not (nor does it really need to be) a SAMBA server.  So 
nothing about this question appears to be Cygwin-related and as such is
off-topic for this list.  You should consider asking your question in a 
Windows forum.

FWIW, Explore2fs provides the UID/GID from Linux, if that's helpful to 
you.
