常用示例
Write local groups to /etc/group

Print groups from the current domain
mkgroup -d
Print groups from a specific domain
mkgroup -d [DOMAIN]
Print local groups from another machine
mkgroup -l [MACHINE]
Exclude Windows BUILTIN groups
mkgroup -l -b

mkgroup -g [GROUPNAME]
说明
mkgroup is a Cygwin helper that prints group information in the format used by Unix `/etc/group` (name:passwd:gid:members), derived from Windows user/group databases (SAM for local accounts, Active Directory for domain accounts). Modern Cygwin reads group information directly from Windows via the `nsswitch.conf` mechanism, so a static `/etc/group` file is usually unnecessary. Generating one with mkgroup is still useful when the machine is frequently disconnected from its domain controller, when you need deterministic GIDs, or when integrating with Samba.

Run `mkgroup -l > /etc/group` in a terminal, then adjust file names, paths, flags, or remote targets for your system.
What does -l, --local _machine_ do in mkgroup?
