Turning to the mailing list as a last resort...
The problem: cygwin-bash$ cp foo.txt //sambamachine/share/ cp: cannot create regular file `//sambamachine/share/foo.txt': Permission denied various unsuccessful mailing list and Google searches turned up only this, from Corinna: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-04/msg01210.html in which she advises getting the MAHINE.SID and setting up your Cygwin /etc/passwd to match etc etc. Unfortunately, none of that worked. An strace reveals: 65 285333 [main] cp 1088 fhandler_base::open: (\\sambamachine\share\foo.txt, 0x201) 127 285460 [main] cp 1088 alloc_sd: owner: ryans [2136] 828 286288 [main] cp 1088 alloc_sd: ACL-Size: 100 74 286362 [main] cp 1088 alloc_sd: Created SD-Size: 176 1115 287477 [main] cp 1088 fhandler_base::open: 0xFFFFFFFF = CreateFileA (\\sambamachine\share\foo.txt, 0x40000000, 0x7, 0x241F644, 0x4, 0x80, 0) 119 287596 [main] cp 1088 seterrno_from_win_error: /cygnus/netrel/src/cygwin-1.3.10-1/winsup/cygwin/fhandler.cc:412 errno 5 53 287649 [main] cp 1088 geterrno_from_win_error: windows error 5 == errno 13 windows error 5 == errno 13 == "Access denied". Interestingly, on the samba machine, foo.txt IS created, but 0 length. If I do *another* cp foo.txt //.... then it succeeds. In cmd.exe, "copy foo.txt \\sambamachine\share\foo.txt" works fine, so I know my samba passwords etc. are all good. Any help appreciated.
