This may not work for you, but what I had to do was to mount the
drives with the noacl option.

This problem first surfaced for me when the server was upgraded from
Windows 2003 Standard to Windows 2003 R2 Standard, and was noticeable
in RCS where I couldn't check out files because I couldn't create the
necessary temp files.  I worked on it for several weeks with the IT
person, and there was no way we could it to work.  The privileges
matched precisely (under Windows) - the only way I could do it was to
be an administrator (and that wasn't going to happen).


Hope this helps,

Richard.

Now I'm updating the machines on which the unit tests are running, from windows XP to Windows Server 2008 and from cygwin 1.5 to cygwin 1.7. Since this update some unit tests are failing.
