After installing Cygwin on XP (when logged into XP as a user in the admin 
group) and then starting Cygwin I see the following:


id: cannot find name for user ID 28510
I have no name!@WAL11112813 ~

-------------------
Here's /etc/passwd:


$ more /etc/passwd

Can't login as my windows Userid:

$ Login

Switching to user sjohnsto failed!

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Steve
