There's only one reason for chmod to fail. Apparently your netapp drive reports to have persistent ACLs but then returns an error when trying to set an ACL. It's incredible how many broken filesystems are out in the wild. Please run the /usr/share/csih/getVolInfo tool on the drive and pate the output into your reply. Did you try to strace chmod to see what happens? Last but not least, did you try to mount the drive with the noacl option? http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
