Your login user should be present in the /etc/passwd file for ntsec to
work correctly (is ntsec even on?).  You might try running "mkpasswd -d -u
tunvqtvalidadm >> /etc/passwd" -- it shouldn't hurt in any case...

Please attach the output of "cygcheck -svr" (as an uncompressed text
attachment, as indicated in <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>), so that
others can help in diagnosing your problem.
