Subject: Re: Can you modify how Cygwin prepends domain name to username?

Hi Linda,

The plus character is the default separator for mkpasswd.

In the help for it (mkpasswd -h), you will see

   -S,--separator char     For -L use character char as domain\user
                           separator in username instead of the default '+'.

Cheers,

Carl.
