Re: updatedb broken?


Alexander,

For the future, please do not include the output of cygcheck inline -- it
produces false positives on archive searches.  Attach it, as requested at
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.

Does the above tell you anything?  It should: your /etc/passwd and
/etc/group are not up to date.  See
<http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-RELEASE1.3.20>.  You
need to update them.
