Example below. Is this a known problem? -- Fran $ /bin/ls -l zzz -rw-r--r--+ 1 littef Domain Users 0 Mar 10 16:39 zzz $ getfacl zzz # file: zzz # owner: littef # group: Domain Users user::rw- group::r-- group:root:rwx group:SYSTEM:rwx group:Users:r-x mask:rwx other:r-- $ setfacl -s user::rw-,group::r--,other::r-- c:/temp/zzz $ getfacl zzz # file: zzz # owner: littef # group: Domain Users user::rw- group::r-- group:root:rwx group:SYSTEM:rwx group:Users:r-x mask:rwx other:r-- $ setfacl -s user::rw-,group::r--,other::r-- /cygdrive/c/temp/zzz $ getfacl zzz # file: zzz # owner: littef # group: Domain Users user::rw- group::r-- mask:rwx other:r-- -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
