OK, then you should just do it. You can set permissions to your heart's content on NT/W2K/XP using NTFS partitions and setting 'ntsec' in your CYGWIN environment variable. Look at the documentation at the Cygwin site and /usr/doc/Cygwin for relevant information. >2) then I do want to be able to block someone from >SSHing in...how do I do that?

There's lots of talk about this in the email list archives. There's also documentation on Cygwin specific issues in /usr/doc/Cygwin. General SSH information is available through the man/info pages for ssh and sshd.
