Re: Can you modify how Cygwin prepends domain name to username?

Hi folks,

Is is posible to modify the behavior of how Cygwin prepends a domain
name to a username?

I need to setup GPFS in an environment where the PC is a member of one
domain and the user that the sshd service will run as is a member of a
different domain.
There is a trust relationship between the domains, however the user
has its domain name prepended and this breaks things for setting up
GPFS.

ie:
ADUNSW+root@gpfs2-pc:~ $ mkpasswd.exe -c
ADUNSW+root:*:2149521262:2147484161:U-ADUNSW\root,S-1-5-21-1140405718-358989843-3445714273-2037614:/home/root:/bin/bash

I welcome any suggestions on how I might be able to work around this?

Thanks,

Carl.



mkpasswd.exe -c > /etc/passwd

and change in /etc/passwd the user name "ADUNSW+root" to what you want.

Regards
Marco
