This permissions problem has existed for awhile, and I'd like to find
a solution.
CMD.EXE is able to create files inside directories on a standard
Windows share, but from a Bash shell on Cygwin, a permission denied
message occurs, and this is in most if not all directories:
-bash: .cpan/build/foo2: Permission denied
cygcheck output might be helpful. Also, what kind of device is the share?
Running '/usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo' on the drive (POSIX) path might be
illuminating.
