I think I’ll stick with my solution. WAT? "noacl" defers permissions management to OS. It DO NOT "ignore" them. > I couldn’t use noacl anyway, because I use db_home: windows in my > nsswitch.conf file, which means my $HOME is outside Cygwin’s mount table. Yes, you do and, realistically speaking, should. > I’d have to individually map each %USERPROFILE% subdir I wanted into > /home/warren in order to use noacl. No, just set /cygpath to noacl. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Saturday, June 25, 2016 02:33:47 Sorry for my terrible english...
