Hi,

I have just installed cygwin under windows xp. And I am trying to
activating root access, follwing the instructions.
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html
Nevertheless, I don't succeed in managing the root access, so i can  not
login with the login command. Are there any typical instructions for
windows xp, since there is not really a administrator login under
windows xp, only a root login. But from this one under cygwin he doesn't
accept the password.  I can telnet on the server by root and
root-password, but I cannot achieve to use login command. I alway
receive error : 
$ login
login: root
Password:
Fanfare!!!
You are successfully logged in to this server!!!
login: no shell: /bin/bash: Permission denied

Hereby my (lightly changed) /etc/passwords and /etc/group
