Thank you for your replies. The permission of files under ~/.ssh can't be changed to 600 when their group owner is None. I have to chgrp -R Users (or Administrators, or any other group name other than None) ~/.ssh to make it possible to run chmod on them. I suppose this is a bug of cygwin on Windows 8/8.1 ?
I changed my GID in /etc/passwd from 513 to 544 to make my primary group Administrators. Now the group owner of the files are turned to ????? . Is it OK to do this?
