Your mounts are probably user mounts, and cygrunsrv running under SYSTEM
doesn't know where /etc (or, rather, /) is, and thus can't access
/etc/passwd.  In the future, this information could be supplied with the
output of "cygcheck -svr" (*attached* to your message), as per
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
