tschutter is a domain user.  So from a ssh cygwin shell:
  $ net use '\\other\f$' MyPassword '/user:FLOODDATA\tschutter'
  The command completed successfully.

So I would suggest that the FAQ entry about shares at
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.shares should be
expanded.  It should mention that the '*' method of specifying the
password will not work, and that you must give the /user option.
