Subject: ftp: can't set gid

Hi,

    While trying to telnet, it works. 

    But when I try to ftp I get the following error

insite> ftp localhost
Connected to gravel.
220 gravel FTP server (GNU inetutils 1.3.2) ready.
Name (localhost:Administrator): insite
331 Password required for insite.
Password:
550 Can't set gid.
ftp: Login failed.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
insite>

     The /etc/passwd file is as follows:

insite> cat /etc/passwd
Administrators:*:544:544:,S-1-5-32-544::
insite:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:1051:544:InSite Interactive User
Account,U-GRAVEL\insite,S-1-5-21-1659004503-963894560-725345543-1051:/c/
insite:/bin/bash
insite>

      The /etc/group file is as follows:
insite> cat /etc/group
Everyone:*:0:0:,S-1-1-0::
SYSTEM:*:18:18:,S-1-5-18::

nobody:*:1050:1050:,S-1-5-21-1659004503-963894560-725345543-1050::
insite>

        Moreover, when I run the command "id", I get the following.
insite> id
uid=400(Administrator) gid=401(mkpasswd) groups=401(mkpasswd)
insite>

       Any suggestions on how to fix this? I checked in the cygwin
mailing lists, but found no answer.

Thanks
Girish
