Remember that the security tab has the very bad habit of re-ordering the ACLs -- but the effect of ACLs is order dependent. Hence, just looking at the permissions of a cygwin-managed directory or file, using the security tab, can introduce a Heisenbug: there was no bug until you observed the permissions. Use getfacl/setfacl to manipulate the permissions/ACLs of cygwin-managed files. -- Chuck -- 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
