Greetings,

I've poked around in the faqs and other docs but have not been able to
solve my proble, which is that for the first time in serveral cygwin
installs I a not able to chmod 755 any of my files.  I believe this is
an ntsec issue, but just haven't been able to get my head around exactly
what is going on.  On simple question that isn't addressed in the docs I
read: might it be a XP with no service pack versus XPSP2 issue?  The
machine giving me the headache is XP with no service pack; on XPSP2
machines (which are the only machine's I've previously run cygwin on)
have all worked as expected right out of the box.

All pointers appreciated.
