I have an smbfs mount (served by samba 3.4.2) in noacl mode on cygwin
1.7.1-1:
//smserver/smshare on /mnt/shar type smbfs (binary,notexec,noacl,user)
Here is the directory as seen on the unix server directly:
r...@smserver foo]# ls -ald bar
dr-xr-sr-x. 2 root agroup 4096 2007-04-21 23:23 bar
As you can see, the directory bar is not writable.
However, here is what cygwin in noacl mode sees:
Raman gu...@client /mnt/shar/foo
$ ls -ald bar
drwxr-xr-x 1 Raman Gupta None 0 2007-04-21 23:23 bar
The mode shown is 755 rather than 555, and indeed cygwin does not have
write access to this directory:
Raman gu...@client /mnt/shar/foo/bar
$ touch baz
touch: cannot touch `baz': Permission denied
Shouldn't cygwin therefore read the permissions as 555?
In acl mode, cygwin does correctly show these directory permissions as
555.
Note that read-only *files* are correctly displayed by cygwin/noacl as
444.
Thanks,
Raman
