I am not sure what windows would be doing with unix level file permissions. I thought MS-Windows worked based upon .exe file naming? Cygwin must be doing some type of mapping to make that work at all. I recommend you check out the Cygwin FAQ as I recall they had something in there about that when I looked at it last. Mostly GNU OS users here and not MS-Windows. http://cygwin.com/faq/ Bob _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
