just add the following entries to your /etc/passwd file: LocalService:*:19:544:U-NT AUTHORITY\LocalService,S-1-5-19:: NetworkService:*:20:544:U-NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService,S-1-5-20:: this will allow you chown LocalService ... or the same with NetworkService kf -- 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
