Greetings, Dr. Volker Zell! >>> I created a shared folder on a Synology NAS and mapped it to a Windows 7 >>> host system. Both Windows 7 and Synology NAS have the same named user >>> account (part of admin groups). The named user has full access to the >>> shared folder on the NAS side. >> >>> I then tried installing latest cygwin versions (x86/x64) on the mapped >>> drive (at the root filesystem) but got permissions errors from setup.exe >> >>> Setup was actually able to create the cygwin directory structure but >>> could not write to the log file. >> >>> Creating directories/files and writing to files is no problem with >>> windows tools on the mapped drive. >> >>> Anybody else tried this setup or knows what's going on here ? Or is a >>> cygwin installation on a NAS not supported ? >> >> Have you authorized admin session on NAS before starting setup?
> How do you do this ? I'm mapping disks twice :) First as regular user, second as elevated. >> Setup by default request elevation and that change all authorization context >> of the application. Even mapped drive letters are different for elevated >> process. >> Can you try to start elevated cmd.exe, make sure you have correct maps/write >> access to destination directory in there and start setup.exe from it? > Same result Opss... bad. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 03.03.2015, <00:04> Sorry for my terrible english... -- 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
