Hi all, Just installed Cygwin on Win2K. It's working fine except that I don't have a username ;( . This has some bad consequences like not being able to use ssh. id returns the following:
uid=479 gid=10513(mkgroup_l_d) groups=544(Administrators),545(Users),10513(mkgroup_l_d) uid 479 is not in passwd, as can be seen in attachment. My username should be erajpaa. I have no idea where Cygwin picks up uid 479 from. If I start up cmd.exe, I can see the following USER related variables: ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users USERDNSDOMAIN=eemea.ericsson.se USERDOMAIN=EEMEA USERNAME=erajpaa USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\erajpaa These are inherited by the Cygwin shell, which however also creates USER=479 Could I have done something wrong during installation, or can I do something to fix this now? Should I change the uid for erajpaa in passwd, or can I do something to convince Cygwin I'm uid 66015 instead? Any help is appreciated. -- Johan Parin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
