Administrator@SCANNER$ cd /tmp Administrator@SCANNER$ touch foo Administrator@SCANNER$ chmod 000 foo Administrator@SCANNER$ ls -l total 0 ---------- 1 Administ None 0 Nov 21 13:34 foo Administrator@SCANNER$ cp foo foo1 cp: `foo.exe' and `foo1' are the same file Doing the same on a Solaris box gets the error: cp: can not open foo: Permission denied -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
