Larry, Do you mean that, with a POSIX path, I get ACL-based permissions, but with Windows paths, I get just user-group-other permissions?
That sounds reasonable, but shouldn't they agree as far as they overlap? In the following example, for example, shouldn't they agree whether foo is writable by Domain Users? $ touch foo # create a plain file $ ls -li c:/cygwin/home/tboemker/foo /home/tboemker/foo 14918173765807874 -rw-r--r-- 1 tboemker Domain Users 1 Sep 12 14:47 /home/tboemker/foo 14918173765807874 -rw-r--r-- 1 tboemker Domain Users 1 Sep 12 14:47 c:/cygwin/home/tboemker/foo $ chmod 666 foo $ !l ls -li c:/cygwin/home/tboemker/foo /home/tboemker/foo 14918173765807874 -rw-rw-rw- 1 tboemker Domain Users 1 Sep 12 14:47 /home/tboemker/foo 14918173765807874 -rw-r--r-- 1 tboemker Domain Users 1 Sep 12 14:47 c:/cygwin/home/tboemker/foo Thanks, Tim -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
