Today, I have reinstalled cygwin and now when I am logged into my domain, my id becomes my log in name on the domain and not Administrator. As well, programs like VIM take 30 seconds to start. If I am logged on as local administrator, everything is okay, vi starts right away and my id=500. I can not explain what happened. Installs on other machines work as expected. I.e. I log on a my domain account on another machine, and my id=500. Can someone explain this? What does cygwin use to determine which user is starting bash? Can I force myself to be administrator. The /etc/passwd file was created during setup: mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd. Any help would be appreciated. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
