Then you can set your group and see a bunch of the standard groups. I also have the cygwin-lsa.dll module in my login so it can read the group & pw file and set membership appropriately. I think that is necessary. Just verified -- my non-cygwin processes have the same security token as when I am in cygwin -- ***EXCEPT*** my x64 process's, right now, don't -- they are getting default tokens because I don't have a full x64 bit setup and don't have a 64-bit cygwin-lsa.dll . But on x32 cygwin, in ccygwin, I see: id|tr "," "\n" uid=15013(Bliss\law) gid=10201(Bliss\lawgroup) groups=10201(Bliss\lawgroup) 544(Administrators) 545(Users) 10512(Bliss\Domain Admins) 10513(Bliss\Domain Users) 10517(Bliss\Cert Publishers) 10518(Bliss\Schema Admins) 10519(Bliss\Enterprise Admins) 10520(Bliss\Group Policy Creator Owners) 10260(Bliss\torrent) 11053(Bliss\Trusted Local Net Users) 11612288(High Mandatory Level) ------------- My main group = my group on my linux box (as propagated by samba). If I use Process Hacker, I can look at the security token of a non-cygwin process and see all the Bliss tokens and the high mandatory token. I don't see the NT_AUTHORITY\xxx tokens in cygwin -- because of a hack in Samba that refuses to return info about those GUIDS -- if you modify samba to return the names for those, you can see those as well. Files I create are normally in Bliss\lawgroup in my own diectories, but in system dirs, it may be Admin or none or trusted abuser. TrustedInstaller has a UID as well: TrustedInstaller:*:4294967294:4294967294:U-NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller,S-1-5-80-956008885-3418522649-1831038044-1853292631-2271478464:: Note -- I have seen your number as 'TrustedInstaller' as well the 4294967295 -- so it might be that number. It should be listed out by mkpasswd -l. You know after you do a mkpasswd -l and a separate mkpasswd -D , you combine them in an /etc/passwd -- same for /etc/group (w/mkgroup). That way you get your stuff set whether you log in on a local or a domain account. Also FWIW -- on my linux machine-- my files are owned by lawgroup as well. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
