I am changing the subject here because this problem is cygwin/xemacs-specif=
ic only, so it has nothing to do with smb permissions because I can touch a=
nd edit the same file with nano and save properly. Same with vi. It's entir=
ely xemacs.=20
I've attached my config, per request.

You want to add "smbntsec" to your CYGWIN environment variable.=A0 See
< http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html> for details.

You'll also want to use "mkpasswd -d >> /etc/passwd" to get domain user
information into it, and possibly "mkgroup -d >> /etc/group" (notice the
double ">>" to append).

It also helps to read and follow

in particular the bit about attaching the output of "cygcheck -svr".
