 Thanks for the analysis.  I did try adding root and gdm /etc/passwd at
 the cygwin end and the query then worked.

 I agree that this is a bug in GDM - I will see about posting a report
 there.  Might be worth adding this to a FAQ in case GDM is not fixed.

Thanks.  Can you let me know the gnome bugzilla number when you do?
