All directories from here on down have been created by Cygwin / rsync, and "." is the target directory of the rsync. > The "dir1" and "dir2" directories both have been created by Cygwin, > but they are somehow totally wrong.

The problem seems to be that without the --acl flag to rsync, it tries to chmod the files it copies to the permissions it gets from the source file (which would be ---rwx---+). > Btw., the getfacl output of dir1 and dir2 don't seem to match the > icacls output. The groups are different. Yes, that's likely a fallout from rsync trying to recreate the mode bits for a different file owner and group. On the source tree the file owner (a domain user) doesn't have any rights, access is granted by one of the share groups (seperately for read-only and modify access) and the filer admin group (modify access plus a few more permissions). None of the share groups have permission to modify the DACL and everything gets inherited from the root node of the share (it's a NetApp, but I don't think that factors into that problem other than being the standard setup on these files apparently). > I wonder if I can create a similar scenario.
