Issue #10614 has been updated by Josh Cooper.
Cygwin's mount code solely looks at the FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS flags to determine whether to attempt to get/set security descriptors, which is what we are doing. I also discovered that some 'NTFS' volumes do not support ACLs, e.g. NetApp, so I updated the error message to reflect that owner, etc can only be managed on filesystems that support Windows ACLs, such as NTFS. ---------------------------------------- Bug #10614: Should not manage or source metadata from files on non-NTFS volumes on Windows https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10614 Author: Josh Cooper Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review Priority: Normal Assignee: Josh Cooper Category: windows Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.7.6 Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/200 If a non-NTFS volume is mounted in Windows, we cannot get or set the owner, group or mode (DACL). In some cases, this can lead to a segfault due to interpreting the boolean return value incorrectly. We should consider attempts to manage these files as invalid, and attempts to source metadata, e.g. uid, should return nil. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
