Hi,
Here is a possible solution. When I start bash through
the shortcut, the CYGWIN variable is not exported from
W2K to bash:
>From cmd.exe:
C:\>echo %CYGWIN%
export ntsec ntea
C:\>\cygwin\cygwin.bat
je734613:jme> echo $CYGWIN
je734613:jme>
In that case, the chmod & chown do not work.
If I set CYGWIN explicitely in bash as:
export CYGWIN="ntsec ntea export"
then chmod & chown work!
My 2 cents,
Jean-Marc
