The server is a rented root server and is NOT in a domain. Originally
the

-> Computer Name) to 'loker-it'. I have the feeling that cygwin
thinks the
server is in a domain. How can I tell cygwin not to set USERDOMAIN? And
while we're at it: how can I set COMPUTERNAME? Can I simply export the
variable?
No. These come from Windows, so you want to make the changes there.
Perhaps this link will help some?

It's totally embarrassing, but restarting the server solved the problem.
Doh!
Apparently I didn't restart the server after renaming it and as a result
cygwin got the two names mixed up. I had made sure to double check the
Window settings and they showed the expected values. My excuses for not
trying the obvious and thanks a lot for the answer.
