Login problems on Win2K

I've almost searched the entire net ;) and could find a solution to this...

When i run cygwin, 1.3.3 i think. i'm automaticly logged in with
Administrator..
i need cygwin for postgresql. and i read you can't do initdb with root or
admin
(tried it.. and just keeeeps hanging when creating database)

so i guessed, lets try another account.. i tried using login. but i can't
login using ANY of my W2000 user names. i recompiled login using the newest
available version etc.. still didn't work
i exported groups and passwords to /etc dir... and gave myself 3 needed
rights from policies.

still can't login... i've also tried to login in another account and run
cygwin then.. still doesn't work.. and i tried runas but that gives an error
once i type correct pass (else it gives can't open file ... or something).

Thanks.

The Eternal,
