Hi,
Here's the situation, I have a netmount "Z:" but I cannot make any files on it
executable from Cygwin:
$ mount
...
Z: on /cygdrive/z type smbfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
$ cd /cygdrive/z
$ pwd
/cygdrive/z
$ cat a.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
$ gcc -Wall a.c
$ echo $?
0
$ ./a.exe
-bash: ./a.exe: Permission denied
$ ls -l a.exe
-rw-rw-r--+ 1 lavr cppcore 157753 Aug 8 11:29 a.exe
$ getfacl.exe a.exe
# file: a.exe
# owner: lavr
# group: cppcore
user::rw-
user:lavr:rw-
group::r--
group:cppcore:r--
mask::rw-
other::r--
$ chmod a+x a.exe
$ echo $?
0
$ ls -l a.exe
-rw-rw-r--+ 1 lavr cppcore 157753 Aug 8 11:29 a.exe
$ getfacl.exe a.exe
# file: a.exe
# owner: lavr
# group: cppcore
user::rw-
user:lavr:rw-
group::r--
group:cppcore:r--
mask::rw-
other::r--
$ ./a.exe
-bash: ./a.exe: Permission denied
What's missing? How to make the file executable, and why chmod() lies about
all-good when it does nothing?
Any ideas please?
Thanks!
P.S. I have another netmount "drive" (U:) which Cygwin identifies as "netapp",
and everything works on that drive,
regarding the execution permission.
U: on /cygdrive/u type netapp (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
Also, any file that I give the "x" permission from outside Cygwin (e.g. from
Linux) on the SMBFS drive "Z:",
becomes executable:
Cygwin> $ gcc -Wall a.c
Linux> $ chmod a+x a.exe
Cygwin> $ ./a.exe
Hello world!
