Sorry I forgot to mention that the permissions on the Linux machine running the Samba server are more similar to the ones when I mount the network drive without the "noacl" option in Cygwin. This is the ls line from the Linux machine: -rwxrw---- 1 chris tech 1014 Dec 15 14:16 amssetup On Cygwin without "noacl": -rwxrw---- 1 ???????? ???????? 1014 2009-12-15 14:16 amssetup On Cygwin with "noacl" -rw-r--r-- 1 chris None 1014 2009-12-15 14:16 amssetup So apart from the ???????? entries, I think going without the "noacl" option would be the way to go. But I will give it a try with "noacl" and see if it has any undesired side-effects.
