Hmm, if you were asking this of Linux, I'd say 'use a umask option in the mount'... does Cygwin not have such a thing? (NOTE: That question is directed at the other Cygwin folks; I looked and did not find one in the 'man' so I'm guessing it does not?) -- Matthew All of my signatures are 100% original.
