Greetings, Andrew DeFaria!

> A mount point for a remote directory without ACL support:

With native ACL support. (Or absence of it.)
Flag "noacl" only means that Cygwin will not try to tap the ACL to mimick the
Linux/Unix access masks.

I suggest you do not use Cygwin ACL with network shares.
Been giving grief to users long time since.
