Yes, POSIX-compatible permissions matching your owner and group settings, plus the directory inheritence entries to propagate the POSIX permissions in case the dir is accessed via native Windows tools, plus the inherited ACEs. Just as expected. > so how is it Windows fault in this situation? Making a fuss over perfectly valid permissions? This message didn't show up until Vista, and starting with Vista it's annoying. If you're expecting Cygwin to create files without POSIX ACLs, then use either a fully qualified DOS path, or add the noacl flag to the cygdrive entry in /etc/fstab.
