mkpasswd, mkgroup

[Andreas Helfenberger]

In your:
--------
Cygwin Documentation
                              
Cygwin User's Guide
The installation of  password and group will not work:
-----------------------------------------------------
Under Windows NT, if you want to create /etc/passwd and /etc/group
(i.e. so ls -l replaces the UID with a name) just do this:
 /$ cd /etc
 /etc$ mkpasswd > /etc/passwd
 /etc$ mkgroup > /etc/group
--------------------------------------------------
I think you should insert the -l Option like
/etc$ mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
 /etc$ mkgroup -l > /etc/group
I do not know wheter or not this bug is already reported.
