Hiya.

I just downloaded cygwin 1.3.1 and installed on a windows 2000 laptop.  I'm 
trying to change file permissions, but nothing ever happens:

>administrator AT KOROCUST ~
>$ ls -l
>total 1
>-rw-r--r--   1 administ None            5 May 17 16:40 foo
>
>administrator AT KOROCUST ~
>$ chmod -v 600 foo
>mode of foo changed to 0600 (rw-------)
>
>administrator AT KOROCUST ~
>$ ls -l
>total 1
>-rw-r--r--   1 administ None            5 May 17 16:40 foo

Anyone seen anything like this?  Know how to fix it?
