SMB is really complex, and Samba adds to the complexity. If the remote drive is a Windows share, check if the server shares the folder with "Full Control" for everyone. If the server is a Samba share, check if `force unknown acl user = yes' and for the share itself, check that read only = No vfs objects = acl_xattr map acl inherit = Yes store dos attributes = Yes Not sure if that helps, but I don't have any other idea. I'm running Samba in an AD environment and "it works for me" :-P Corinna -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
