Igor,

I suspect the resolution to my problem will be different from yours.

For me, I just wanted shares mounted under Cygwin to behave the same as if I mounted it under Command Prompt. I got this result by disabling ntsec for CIFS shares ("nosmbntsec"). 

I couldn't provide an answer for your inheriting-permissions issue, sorry.
