Thanks, but I'm even more puzzled than before.

Is that what you have in /etc/passwd?

what does `mkpasswd -d | grep -i lemkemch' print?  The unknown user is
totally weird.  It should only occur if your SID doesn't show up in your
/etc/passwd file.  Also, if /etc/nsswitch.conf is "files" only, and
you don't have a group file, there should be only one group in your `id'
output, the primary group 10513.  Here's how it looks like for me:

  $ getent passwd corinna
  corinna:unused:11001:11125:U-VINSCHEN\corinna,S-1-5-21-2913048732-1697188782-3448811101-1001:/home/corinna:/bin/tcsh
  $ id
  uid=11001(corinna) gid=11125 groups=11125

Did you stop all cygwin processes after doing all the settings,
including any service?

Can you change /etc/nsswitch.conf to "db" only, stop all cygwin
processes and restart a shell?  What does `getent passwd %USERNAME%'
and `id' print now?  How does an strace of this getent call look like?

I'm grabbing for straws...


Thanks,
Corinna
