cygwin does not play "fairly" - it does not have processes the way standalone unix does because it is a guest operating system. Under some circumstances it is possible do ps -ef on cygwin and only see your process tree - nothing else.

pam_guest
PAM_GUEST(8) BSD System Manager's Manual PAM_GUEST(8)
NAME
pam_guest -- Guest PAM module
SYNOPSIS
[service-name] module-type control-flag pam_guest [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
The guest service module for PAM allows guest logins. If successful, the pam_guest module sets the PAM environment variable GUEST to the
login name. The application can check this variable using pam_getenv(3) to differentiate guest logins from normal logins.
The following options may be passed to the pam_guest module:
guests=list Comma-separated list of guest account names. The default is ``guest''. A typical value for ftpd(8) would be
``anonymous,ftp''.
nopass Omits the password prompt if the target account is on the list of guest accounts.
pass_as_ruser The password typed in by the user is exported as the PAM_RUSER item. This is useful for applications like ftpd(8) where guest
users are encouraged to use their email address as password.
pass_is_user Requires the guest user to type in the guest account name as password.
SEE ALSO
pam_get_item(3), pam_getenv(3), pam.conf(5), pam(8)
AUTHORS
The pam_guest module and this manual page were developed for the FreeBSD Project by ThinkSec AS and NAI Labs, the Security Research Division
of Network Associates, Inc. under DARPA/SPAWAR contract N66001-01-C-8035 (``CBOSS''), as part of the DARPA CHATS research program.
