Basic questions first...<br />
1) At the Logon screen, in the drop-down box, you do have your Domain name listed, not your computer name right?<br />
2) I'm not exactly sure what you mean by cygwin window. I am assuming that you mean a command prompt window...<br />
<br />
<br />
Have you tried using - WHOAMI /ALL<br />
Have you tried looking at the syntax of the command using - WHOAMI /?<br />
<br />
I hope this helps

jmiller: Cygwin is a freeware downloadable program which simulates a UNIX shell under Windows, so no, it isn't a standard command prompt.

I log in to a win2000 computer with my network domain &nbsp;password and then when I type &quot;whoami&quot; in a cygwin window it says &quot;Administrator&quot;<br />
<br />
How do I get it to say my domain user name and not administrator?

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
