I'm running cygwin (CYGWIN_NT-4.0 1.1.5(0.29/3/2) 2000-11-02 02:01) on Windows NT 4.0, SP6a in a Windows NT network. I've set CYGWIN=tty binmode ntea ntsec. I've mounted all disks and shares in binary mode. I've built a /etc/group and a /etc/passwd file with NT SID's for most users and groups in the domain. Usually, when I access files on a share, everything works as expected; e.g., /n [342] ls -l total 0 drwxrwxrwx 1 jh Domain U 0 Jul 13 1999 ACCSVC drwxrwxrwx 1 administ Domain U 0 Jul 15 1999 AfgTest drwxrwxrwx 1 administ Domain U 0 Oct 27 10:14 SKT -rwxrwxrwx 1 hf Domain U 0 Nov 2 17:19 SQL.LOG drwxrwxrwx 1 administ Domain U 0 Mar 17 1999 Sattrups ordbog drwxrwxrwx 1 administ Domain U 0 Feb 28 1998 Skattememo drwxrwxrwx 1 administ Domain U 0 Nov 18 1998 Skt2Lsr drwxrwxrwx 1 pri Domain U 0 Jan 27 2000 SktErh except that on two shares (so far), I get something similar to this: /u [344] ls -l total 72 ---------- 1 ton Domain U 272 Nov 20 1997 CELEX.LOG d--------- 1 ton Domain U 0 Dec 20 1999 DRL.F42 ---------- 1 ton Domain U 1049 Sep 11 1997 LNAME.INI d--------- 1 ton Domain U 0 Jun 28 12:36 LOVINFO.F42 drwx------ 1 administ Domain U 0 Oct 27 13:52 MAGNUS d--------- 1 ton Domain U 0 Oct 9 14:13 SktErh.F42 ---------- 1 ton Domain U 2203 Jun 24 1999 TREEINFO.NCD ---------- 1 ton Domain U 90 May 3 2000 Text.txt d--------- 1 ton Domain U 0 Jul 18 13:35 UTILS ---------- 1 hf Domain U 6242 Jan 31 2000 alle de smaa filer herfra.zip d--------- 1 hf Domain U 0 Nov 2 16:56 chklst ---------- 1 jh Domain U 847 Oct 8 1997 copy000.bat ---------- 1 pri Domain U 0 Nov 7 15:18 test I created the last file, test, using touch just a minute ago. ls will happily list the directories, and most utilities will read and write files with no regard to the strange permissions, except the one that I need most right now (mkisofs, a utility for creating cd-rom file system images); it barks like this: mkisofs: Permission denied. File /u/SktErh.F42/SIGNFORM/FORMS/103025.CPT is not readable - ignoring just because mkisofs tests if a file is supposed to readable before trying to read it. BTW, looking through the archives I find that I've already reported a similar problem: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-06/msg01232.html. kind regards, Peter Ring -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
