This is upside down.  It's not the uid 10545 which is Domain Users,
because the 10545 is only the Cygwin translation from a Windows SID
in a Cygwin PID.  You should always start with the SID from which
the PID is derived.

Actually the SID S-1-5-32-545 is the Users group on the local machine.
If you need the SID for the Domain Users group you have to retrieve
it using `mkgroup -d -g "Domain Users"', which gives you something
like this:

  $ mkgroup -d -g 'Domain Users'
  Domain Users:S-1-5-21-380728306-1056519143-2954708907-513:10513:

Anybody still looking into http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html
once in a while?  It's outdated (Dave?) but maybe it's still useful.
