  /etc $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-5.0 OurServer108 1.5.20s(0.155/4/2) 20060329 23:02:10 i686 Cygwin
  /etc $ tail -1 passwd
  sshd:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:1003:513:sshd privsep,U-OurServer108\sshd,S-1-5-21-1085031214-1409082233-839522115-1003:/var/empty:/bin/false
  /etc $ wc -l passwd
  343 passwd
  /etc $ /bin/ls -l passwd
  /etc $
