Pierre A. Humblet:
 >644 permissions are OK, but what are the owner and the group?

I (the only user) am the owner and it has no group:

$ ls -la exim*
-rwxr--r--    1 mike     None        26475 Aug 19 01:51 exim.conf

Any ideas?

Also, how do I see a list of groups in cygwin? I know passwd shows users 
  and what groups they might be in, but is there a command to view 
created groups?
