This is a weird one. If I use a non-cygwin program such as 'edit' or 'ntemacs' to create a file under userA, say 'test', then when I list under user A, I get as expected: -rwxr--r--+ 1 userA None 0 2009-11-14 19:00 test*
However, when I list under userB (who is non-privileged), I get: -rwxr--r--+ 1 ???????? ???????? 0 2009-11-14 19:00 test* Now if under userA, I do something seemingly innocuous, say: chmod u+r test which doesn't even change any permissions (nor ACL's for that matter), the listing under userB is now correct. This doesn't happen when I create files in bash directly say by using 'touch'. Also the ACL for the file is nothing weird for that matter: # owner: userA # group: None user::rwx group::--- group:SYSTEM:rwx mask:rwx other:--- And 'traverse files' is on.
