I hv a problem ... Initially i forgot to use ntea or ntsec. now if I set CYGWIN to ntea and try to change mode (chmod) of any file, i get message bad file descriptor. If I use ntsec i donot get his message. I am using FAT32 on w2k One more thing evenif I get bad file descriptor, the r/w permssions on owner are changed (both for ntea and ntsec) but exection permissions cannot be changed(even if I don't get a error message in ntsec) What could be the reason Help me here Vikram -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
