If I logged into a machine with a local account, there has never been a domain name to have to bother with -- so for me user-logins were prefixed with the domain only when they were in a domain. This has been the way windows has worked for as long as I've run a domain server -- if a local machine is not in a domain, then it's username-only, but if it is in a domain, then I'd need to type-or-add the local-machine name to NOT login via the domain creds. For local accounts, the RID==the UID, for domain accounts the RID==the UID on the domain controller. Do I understand that cygwin is no longer compatible with window's (and samba's) naming convention? That would be a pain. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
