Subject: Properly using ntsec, from the beginning

How would one go about doing a fresh install on NTFS, whether it be NT or
2000, and use the ntsec option of CYGWIN properly, without having to
immediately change file and directory permissions throughout?
IOW, is there a proven method to install Cygwin and get a proper filesystem
tree with permissions on text files, configuration files, and executable
scripts set similar to a typical UNIX filesystem? And also have proper
permission manipulation within cygwin.
