Heh. The first settings you should change are in your mailer:
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#PCYMTNQREAIYR please!
As to how they got there, you appear to have some pre-existing
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#3PP package called 'CmdTools' installed on that
PC, which is cygwin-based and has stale and conflicting versions of various
libraries and dlls in it. Get rid of it and then have another go with
mkpasswd/mkgroup.
cheers,
