Every file created by a non-Cygwin app appears in Cygwin with mode 0700. I've read the documents pertaining to ntfs permissions in Cygwin but don't see a way to configure things so that Cygwin sees them as a more reasonable 0755 or 0644 (for non-executables). This is a nuisance since when I upload such files to a Solaris system with scp, even without -p, the files end up 0700 in Solaris as well. If I chmod the files in Cygwin (to 0755) then then end up 0755 after uploading.
I have a valid /etc/passwd and /etc/group (generated by mkpasswd and mkgroup). Is it possible to configure Cygwin so it sees non-Cygwin-created files as 0644 or 0755? -- 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/
