right after installation of cygwin, the cygwin
filesystem is mostly under user Administrators (the
user I use is Admin, which is just renaming the
default Administrator of Win2k) and group None...
While I am not sure if None is a group, I am pretty
damn sure that Administrators is a group in my win2k
machine and not a user....what's up with that???

I checked /etc/passwd and found that "Administrators"
and "Admin" are both well-defined user and am
wondering how come cygwin uses Administrators (again,
a group in win2k) by default?
would
"find / -user Administrators -group none -exec chown
Admin:PowerUser {} \;"
do any harm? (because I did it....)
