Dear all,

I am new to Cygwin. When I try to execute a  file call
example.exe I get such message:

bash: ./first.exe: Permission denied

so I use chmod a+rx to change the file permisssion and
here is the result:
-rwxrwxrwx  1 chen41 mkgroup-l-d 11241 May  6 18:40
first.exe.

But when I type ./first.exe(or first) I still get the
same message: 

bash: ./first.exe: Permission denied.


What am I supposed to do now?

Thank all for the help,

Li
