  Heh.  The first settings you should change are in your mailer:
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#PCYMTNQREAIYR please!

  As to how they got there, you appear to have some pre-existing
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#3PP package called 'CmdTools' installed on that
PC, which is cygwin-based and has stale and conflicting versions of various
libraries and dlls in it.  Get rid of it and then have another go with
mkpasswd/mkgroup.


    cheers,
      DaveK
