Uhm, not with Cygwin 1.7.35, unless your domain is the primary domain of
your machine, in which case you just omit the leading domain:
cygrunsrv [...] -u 'build'
This is a bug in Cygwin. Cygrunsrv calls getpwnam("ISCINTERNAL\\build")
and the underlying code fails to recognize this as invalid Cygwin user
name. Instead, it constructs a user entry for a user
ISCINTERNAL+ISCINTERNAL\build and carries on.
I fixed that in the repo and uploaded new developer snapshots 2015-03-31
with this patch to https://cygwin.com/snapshots/. Please give them a try.
Thanks,
Corinna
