I created a directory using the local admin account, and it inherited permissions from the local "Users" group. I then installed cygwin using a domain account. I created a valid /etc/passwd and /etc/group I used chgrp -R "Domain Users" / to reset the group and chmod to reset the permissions. Everything looks ok: andrewd AT A5-2K:/ $ls -al / | grep var drwxr-xr-x 6 cygwin Domain U 0 Dec 18 14:08 var The problem is that for some reason the local "Users" group still has access, as getfacl shows: andrewd AT A5-2K:/ $getfacl /var # file: /var # owner: 1228 # group: 513 user::rwx group::r-x group:545:rwx mask::r-x other::r-x default:user::rwx default:group::r-x default:group:545:rwx default:mask::r-x default:other::r-x For some reason I cant get setfacl to remove the "group:545:" entries, all I get is "setfacl: illegal acl entries" even the following doesn't work touch foo touch bar getfacl foo | setfacl -f - bar (As a work around, chgrp "Users" $FILE && chgrp "Domain Users" $FILE seems to work.) I'm about to recompile everything so I can step through it. Regards, Andrew Dalgleish -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
