All, I had to answer questions about the mysterious owner `544' often in the past. For clearness: 544 is the RID (which is in NT/W2K like a UID/GID in U*X) of the administrators group. Since files created by members of the administrators group are owned by the admins group and not by the creator under NT/W2K you will often see that the admins group is the owner of files. >From the next Cygwin version on, the `mkpasswd' tool will create an entry for the admins group in /etc/passwd by default. I hope that will help. You will then see the name of the admins group in `ls -l' output instead of the number 544 and you don't have to add an entry for that group by yourself.
