Hi;

mkpasswd -l /etc/passwd and mkgroup -l /etc/group results: [1722]: The
RPC server is unavailable

fresh install, first time, of ALL (non-source) packages of cygwin on
64-bit Windows 7

Got the usual: "Your group is mkgroup..."

I'm not currently in a domain and do not wish to be in a domain so I
did not run with the -d option.

Is this a result of Cygwin not being formally supported for 64-bit WIndows?

If cygckeck output as an attachment is needed, i'll gladly supply it.

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
