I was able to reproduce the symptom with another clean install on my XP Pro
machine. The /etc/group file was interesting...different than the output of
mkgroup. Attached are the /etc/passwd, /etc/group and mkgroup output. The
/etc/passwd file is sanitized for user and machine names. The mkpasswd outp=
ut
matched the /etc/passwd contents.

I have the installed Cygwin if there is any other useful information.
