Basically, linux file system does not support 'SYSTEM' attribute, but samba support it using extended attributes if 'store dos attributes' is set to 'yes' (by default since samba 4.9). -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp> -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
