  And even better, you sent cygcheck output.  Excellent.

cygcheck.out: CYGWIN = 'ntsec'

  Perhaps you need smbntsec as well?

"(no)smbntsec - if set, use ntsec on remote drives as well (default is
"nosmbntesc"). When setting "smbntsec" there's a chance that you get problems
with Samba shares so you should use this option with care. One reason for a
non working ntsec on remote drives could be insufficient permissions of the
users. The requires user rights are somewhat dangerous (SeRestorePrivilege),
so it's not always an option to grant that rights to users. However, this
shouldn't be a problem in NT domain environments."
