I had tried this earlier running the chgrp.exe, but it threw an error saying unknown group 'Users'. I assume this is because when chgrp.exe is located outside of the default cygwin directory, it doesn't know where to find the group file. I also attempted to create a separate file where i'd dump the contents of my private key into, but that file seems to also be afflicted by this permissions problem of having 660 with no group set. > This may just be a problem in terminology but if you're planning to > only provide a link to Cygwin's site/source, this will not be compliant > with GPL license.

Yes, this was clarified by the folks on the cygwin-licensing mailing list and shouldn't be a problem.
