Is ntsec set before any Cygwin process starts (i.e. bash?).  Check out
the FAQ and user's guide regarding permission problems and ntsec.  If
that information doesn't help, you'll want to inspect your system
configuration via 'cygcheck -s -r -v'.  Send it to the list if careful
inspection doesn't suggest some problems to you.
