Particularly I need to change the permissions on my keyrings and options file under GnuPG. I read the FAQ about how to do it and I understand that I must do it under Windows instead of using chmod. The problem is that I really don't know enough about Windows to make the correct change. I'm running Windows 2000. I need to change the permissions to 600 i.e. no groups or world access. Is there a way to do this? If so can someone please explain to me exactly what it is I need to do under Windows 2000/Cygwin to make it happen? I know the UNIX stuff backwards and forwards. It's the Windows stuff that has me stumped. -- John Perry - perry AT jpunix DOT com http://www.jpunix.com http://weather.jpunix.com -- 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/
