I don't know about that.  Could you give me a quick summary of how that works?
I'll check the Cygwin user guide later for more details.

Would this have something to do with whether Cygwin knows you as your login
name or as "administrator"?  I realize that the people in my group who don't
have this same symptom always are known as "administrator" in Cygwin.  I always
set up my Cygwin installation so it knows my name (mkpasswd -d > /etc/passwd).
