I have both a local and a domain account with the same name. 
When the server is NULL, NetUserGetInfo  gives the local info 
even when I am logged in as a domain user (on NT).

If I unset HOMEPATH in DOS before starting sh, the official
Cygwin sets it incorrectly.

Could somebody with only a domain account try the following 
program? It's quick and dirty, you have to type the logonserver
and user names in the program. Compile with -lnetapi32 .

This would just be curiosity, to see if Windows does any
caching. In the case of setuid we are looking up another user. 
Looking up domain accounts on NULL fails.
