I was messing with my theme libs and noted the following differences in
how CYGWIN displays the attributes and Groups:
-rwx------+ 1 Administrators None 214K Aug 7 2004 uxtheme.dll*
-rwxrwx---+ 1 Administrators SYSTEM 214K Aug 4 2004
uxtheme.dll-old*
-rwxrwx---+ 1 Administrators Administrators 214K Aug 4 2004 uxtheme.old*
They all seem to have the same file attribs:
/windows/system32> attrib ux\*
A C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll
A C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll-old
A C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.old
More importantly, they all seem to have the same ACL's attached:
/windows/system32> xcacls uxtheme\*
C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll BUILTIN\Administrators:F
BUILTIN\Power Users:C
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F
BUILTIN\Users:R
C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll-old BUILTIN\Administrators:F
BUILTIN\Power Users:C
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F
BUILTIN\Users:R
C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.old BUILTIN\Administrators:F
BUILTIN\Power Users:C
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F
BUILTIN\Users:R
----------
"CYGWIN" has value "notitle glob:ignorecase export" (so no special security
settings).
I thought Cygwin derived it's user/group/permissions from the NT security
settings. Is this not the case?
Thanks,
