I wonder if it would be possible to do something like this: /etc/passwd -> /proc/mkpasswd /etc/group -> /proc/mkgroup
These sym links would make the 2 files dynamic and would simplify setup somewhat. We could use a CYGWIN environment variable to set whether /proc/mkpasswd would run with -l or -d or both It would also be nice with we could perhaps use the SAM accounts "description" field to set the home path and shell.
