I neglected to mention this is under XP. I've had NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 mount local drives fine, but this is also different in that the drive is mounted via Samba. When I start the session I have only C: mounts; the home directory drive is marked Unavailable, so I mount /cygdrive/k via cmd: net use k: \\tor\win-kirke Status Local Remote Network ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unavailable H: \\tor\kirke Microsoft Windows Network Unavailable I: \\Tor\root Microsoft Windows Network OK K: \\tor\win-kirke Microsoft Windows Network Unavailable M: \\Mor\music Microsoft Windows Network Unavailable P: \\Mor\My Pictures Microsoft Windows Network The command completed successfully. /home/kirke is a symbolic link to k:/ [kirke@XOR kirke]$ getfacl .bashrc # file: .bashrc # owner: 19938 <unknown> # group: 1021 <unknown> user::rwx group::r-- mask::r-- other::r-- Locally my id output is the same, but: [kirke@XOR k]$ getfacl .bashrc # file: .bashrc # owner: kirke # group: Administrators user::rwx group::r-- mask::r-- other::r-- I've explored to C:/cygwin/home, and make unchecked readonly on kirke there, and repeated the process specifying password on the way in to no avail...
