Hi,

I need to use a different named user account on Cygwin, ie one without a
space.

I am using Vista and Cygwin.

I have an account created by default called 'Aaron Gray', what I need is
an account called 'ang'.

How can I go about changing my default account to be 'ang', if this is
possible at all ?

Just change your user name in /etc/passwd to "ang"(*).

Many thanks Corinna,

Aaron
