Setting up new cygwin: mkpasswd -d says "LookupAccountName" failed with error 1332.

I'm trying to set up a new Cygwin install on a new PC.  I'm trying to use
"mkpasswd -d > /etc/passwd" to set up the passwd file.  It gets a lot of
entries, but it doesn't get the entry for my name.  I also see the following
output line:

   LookupAccountName(\\RAIDER,ROOT\root) failed with error 1332

Earlier, before I manually set my "HOME" variable, the Bash shell would give
me a prompt with "I have no name!".
