You could always use icacls.exe (native security manipulation tool). > I just copied a file that had 'rwxrwxrwx+' for its permissions to a new > directory.

This doesn't tell us even half the story without the output of getfacl and icacls on these files. P.S. Another possibility is to not use Cygwin permissions and defer permissions management to the OS. See "noacl" mount option in documentation. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Sunday, February 26, 2017 04:14:27 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
