That doesn't necessarily tell you anything about what happens when you try to log in via ssh (which creates a new session and requires an independent login). Again, the fact that Cygwin shows you a different user name already tells you that there is something quite different from when you are in the office. If you can strace id you might get a clue of what is going on with the queries to the AD sever in both cases (i.e. what server it asks and whether it gets an answer). > Everything on the Windows side seems to be working fine.

Yes, you can force a home directory via config files, but you should keep in mind that this can fail in even more mysterious ways should the environment change again.
