+-------------------
| Have you tried use tee?  For example:
| 
| $ net group /domain | tee group.txt
|
This didn't help because I wasn't getting anything on stdout to begin
with, and tee copies stdout to a file.  So all i got was:  nothing on
the screen, and a file of size 0, called group.txt.

But after setting the system (environment) variable CYGWIN to 'tty',
as suggested by Peter Buckley, both net.exe (on it's own), as well
as with a pipe to tee now work as expected.

Thanks for your input.
