We are currently using Cygwin 1.5.12-1 on our Windows 2000 Domain as the ssh server for our PCs.  1.5.12-1 ssh allows us to log into the domain PCs remotely using our domain accounts.  I installed Cygwin 1.5.19-4 on one system and find that when I remotely log in using a domain account the native Windows "whoami" command reports my identity as "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".  When I remotely ssh log in on the same system using a local account I see the correct identity.  All logins are using manually entered passwords.  I used the following commands to create the passwd and group files:

mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
mkpasswd -d  >> /etc/passwd
mkgroup -l > /etc/group
mkgroup -d >> /etc/group

I configured ssh to use the sshd privilege separation account and specified "ntsec binmode tty".  The sshd server is configured to logon as the local system account.  What changes do I need to make to allow 1.5.19-4 to support logons using our domain account like 1.5.12-1 can?  Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

Also, I have noticed that an "id -G" in 1.5.12-1 produces the same output when logged in locally and thru an ssh session, while in 1.5.19-4 it produces different output for the two types of logon.
