Hi Corinna,
I see no difference from before

That's weird. In my environment,
$ cat /etc/passwd | grep yano
yano:*:197609:545:U-EXPRESS5800-

$
Should you not check `getent passwd $USER` and `net user $USER` rather than
{,/etc/}passwd, as the former are Cygwin and Windows output while the
latter are Cygwin input?
Hi Brian,
"id" is a cygwin output
On the laptop works.
$ id
uid=197608(Marco) gid=545(Users)
groups=545(Users),197121(NESSUNO),4(INTERACTIVE),66049(ACCESSO
CONSOLE),11(Authenticated Users),15(Questa organizzazione),113(Account
locale),4095(CurrentSession),66048(LOCALE),262154(Autenticazione
NTLM),401408(Livello obbligatorio medio)
I will look better why the Desktop failed. May be a reboot is needed.
I was sure to have shutdown all Cygwin process, but maybe some were
still running.
Regards
Marco
