Dear fellow Cygwinners, I use Cygwin to work on a samba network drive and am unable to execute bash scripts from there because "bash: ./amssetup: Permission denied". I think this is due to the missing owner/group info:
$ ls -l amssetup -rwxrw---- 1 ???????? ???????? 1014 2009-12-15 14:16 amssetup If I mount this network drive using the "noacl" option, it looks like this: $ ls -l amssetup -rw-r--r-- 1 chris None 1014 2009-12-15 14:16 amssetup This lets the script execute, but I am a little bit worried about the other permissions, "-rw-r--r--" instead of "-rwxrw----". Why are the permissions different? Is there a way of preserving the original permissions and still fake the user/group info as with "noacl"? Or is it safe to use the "noacl" mount? Maybe there is another, cleaner way of accessing the samba share I have missed... I am still new to the Unix/Linux/Cygwin world =) Cheers Chris -- 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
