status: ssh works but with permissions issues; rsync works but with

issues: permissions do not seem to be handled properly within my cygwin
environment. this causes two issues: 1) ssh cannot be setup with public
keys for authentication because perms can't be set to 'r--------' on the
(XP) key file (rsync automation depends on this ability) and 2) when i set
the 'p' flag when running rsync it goes to the slave box and touches all
files that exist on the host box regardless if they are in need of update
causing rsync's wonderful ability to sync things quickly go straight down
the crapper plus it makes the perms on the sun box go screwy (yes, i can
take off the p flag but it still does not fix the ssh key problem).

yes, i have searched.
i've run:
mkpasswd -d > /etc/passwd
mkgroup -d > /etc/group
i've set (in both .bash_profile [set CYGWIN=ntsec;export $CYGWIN;] and
global env for xp)
:: reboot ::
cygwin cmd line results..

i've also tried the -l option on both mkpasswd and mkgroup and manually
modified both output files so that my current user has a valid group (not
'mkgroup') but still no dice.
I assume you're doing this testing from your home directory. If that's the
case, you need to add 'smbntsec' to your CYGWIN variable. See
