After having read the FAQ and setting CYGWIN to "ntsec tty", chmod still does not change file permissions on my Windows XP system. I've created /etc/passwd and /etc/group as follows:
mkpasswd --local --domain > /etc/passwd mkgroup --local --domain > /etc/group My system configuration is: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] Cygwin 1.5.5-1 What am I overlooking?
