From: waxmop AT sarcastic-horse DOT com To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com User-Agent: SquirrelMail/1.4.1-1.7.ct MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain;charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 Importance: Normal Hi - I finally got cygwin to install, after downloading lots and lots of packages and with everyone's helpful hints on this mailing list. Thanks a lot to all of you. So, I started cygwin, and I get this message at the top of the screen above the bash prompt: Your username or group hasn't been setup correctly. This typically happens if you are a domain user (cygwin does not automatically create /etc/passwd or /etc/group for domain users) What should I do here? Is there such a thing as a 'root' account and user accounts?
