My vague memory indicates that at some time, the permissions for files in /usr/doc/ncurses-5.2/, for eg, were -rw-rw-r--. Now, after a reinstall (forced by domain change) I get: $ ls --color -l /usr/doc/ncurses-5.2/ total 445 -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 24376 Jan 9 2002 ANNOUNCE -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 9177 Jan 9 2002 Ada95.html -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 223203 Jan 9 2002 NEWS -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 7257 Jan 9 2002 README -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 10727 Jan 9 2002 TO-DO -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 24431 Jan 9 2002 announce.html -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 33688 Jan 9 2002 hackguide.html -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 883 Jan 9 2002 index.html -rwxrwxrwx 1 Administ Domain U 119310 Jan 9 2002 ncurses-intro.html ... and the color for files is, obviously, green. Is this normal? As posible causes for this, I might have played with the security settings for drive C:, but don't know what I modified. When I do a: touch ~/someNewFile I get -rw-rw-rw- 1 rudy Domain U 0 Sep 4 00:14 someNewFile which is ok and, looking in ACE list, looks like cygwin is setting custom permission entries for that file. So, my second question is: isn't setup expected to do the same? As environment: fresh install from scrach on win2k with latest setup, nt 4.0 domain controller, mkpasswd/mkgroup -l -d, CYGWIN=ntsec Thanks in advance, rudy -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
