Here is my mkpasswd -c output while the machine is at home (I can't run it at the office,
as I'm not allowed to go there at this time):

Mark.Hansen:*:1293438:1049089:U-MAN\Mark.Hansen,S-1-5-21-602162358-1060284298-725345543-244862:/cygdrive/c/Users/mark.hansen:/bin/zsh

Note that my domain is "MAN" not "U-MAN" - I don't know if that is significant.
This does show my home directory as /cygdrive/c/Users/mark.hansen, which is correct.
