No.  If you don't want to get a "Permission denied" error messages every
time some application tries to change the permissions, you will have to
use "noacl".  It seems you don't understand what "acl" vs. "noacl" is
for.  Does reading the User's Guide at
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table help?

Ok, so there is some sort of policy.  It would be nice to get some
"how to set up a share policy which doesn't allow changing permissions
 for dummies" :)
