We've got a directory which is mounted from a Samba server. The server is sharing the directory as read-only. However under Cygwin
access("/path/to/samba/mount/some_file",W_OK) is returning 0, indicating the that file is writable. I assume this is because Cygwin doesn't "know" that directory is read-only. Is there any workaround (such as an option to "mount") that would tell cygwin that the directory is read-only, or that all directories have 555 permission instead of 755? -- Peter Fales Lucent Technologies Member of Technical Staff 2000 Lucent Lane Room: 1C-436 Naperville, IL 60566-7033 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 630 979 8031 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
