Rsync is rather old-school Unix-oriented, so it only checks if its uid is 0 to see if it should try to chown things. You can give it the --super option to tell it to try root things when you're a non-0 user, which works in my testing. ..wayne.. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Sorry, the {put,get}clip.exe are in cygutils-extra package. But -8 is correct.

Duplicate ACLs? - Can't copy file even with Admin permissions
To: Subject: X-Mailer: VM 8.2.0b under 25.2.2 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu--text follows this line-- I have a file: /c/Config.Msi/3da9e136.rbf that I cannot copy, even when I run bash as an administrator -- seemingly due to perm/acl errors. Specifically: # mv 3da9e136.rbf newfile: works # cp 3da9e136.rbf newfile: works But, # cp -a 3da9e136.rbf newfile cp: preserving permissions for ‘newfile’: Permission denied (though the file is created) If I then do # getfacl 3da9e136.rbf | setfacl -f - newfile setfacl: more than one user entry. And: # getfacl 3da9e136.rbf # file: 3da9e136.rbf # owner: Administrators # group: SYSTEM user::rwx group::rwx other::r-x user::rwx group::rwx group:SYSTEM:rwx mask::rwx other::r-x While: # getfacl newfile # file: newfile # owner: Administrators # group: SYSTEM user::rwx group::rwx other::r-x So the problem seems to be that the 'user' (and presumably also the 'group' and 'other') ACLs are duplicated. Note that 'subinacl' shows: = +File C:\Config.Msi\3da9e136.rbf = /control=0x0 /owner =builtin\administrators /primary group =system /audit ace count =0 /perm. ace count =3 /pace =system Type=0x0 Flags=0x3 AccessMask=0x1f01ff /pace =everyone Type=0x0 Flags=0x3 AccessMask=0x1200a9 /pace =builtin\administrators Type=0x0 Flags=0x3 AccessMask=0x1f01ff - Not sure if this is an NTFS bug (or feature???) or a problem with Cygwin file manipulation tools. Either way: - Is this a bug? (or a feature) - Any idea how or why this happened? - Any idea how (or whether) to fix this so that I don't have duplicate ACLs? Ideally, I would like to "fix" the problem with Cygwin tools... -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
