Running cygwin 64-bit on Windows 8 doesn't allow me to remove group permissions from a file. On 32-bit cygwin doing the same thing works fine. Luke@Sorcerer ~/test $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.2 Sorcerer 1.7.23(0.268/5/3) 2013-08-09 10:05 x86_64 Cygwin Luke@Sorcerer ~/test $ touch test Luke@Sorcerer ~/test $ chmod -c 600 test mode of `test' changed from 0660 (rw-rw----) to 0600 (rw-------) Luke@Sorcerer ~/test $ ls -la total 4.0K drwxrwx---+ 1 Luke None 0 Aug 11 15:40 ./ drwxrwxr-x+ 1 Luke None 0 Aug 11 15:40 ../ -rw-rw---- 1 Luke None 0 Aug 11 15:40 test Luke@Sorcerer ~/test $ umask 0077 Any help would be appreciated.
