Second Request: ftp "550 Can't set uid"


Hello,

I can telnet and rsh into my cygwin machine which uses a remote
password server (hence passwd file says user::1000, ...) 
running on WindowsNT, but I can't ftp.

I get the message:

	"Wow! I have found the ftp deamin! Let's see...

But, after I enter user name and password, I see this:

	550 Can't set uid
	ftp: Login failed.

There is no entry in the ftpusers file so that isn't the problem.

I don't have administrator authority on my machine: could there
be a way around any problem it might be creating. If that
is the problem, why must it be a problem in ftp but not in telent?

Does anyone have a solution?

David
