Thank you for pointing out getfacl, I didn't know that existed. You are right in that the ACLs from getfacl match up correctly. Also, if you create a directory in Cygwin on /c like you did it does not show up as shared. If you create a directory in your Vista home directory (/c/Users/<username>/) on the other hand it shows up as shared. I thought there was something about the /c/Users/<username> directory where child folders inherit the parent's settings as you alluded to; however, the /c/Users/<username> dir is not shared by default. Is setting a folder to be shared separate from the ACLs? If I create a folder in Vista and set it to shared/not shared getfacl returns the same thing. Do you have any more insight about this? I can also say that CYGWIN=notntsec does fix this behavior (created folders are no longer shared). I have searched for information about this setting but haven't yet found a good explanation. Can you shed some light on what this env variable does, and what are the consequences of setting it (or point me to a post/resource that can explain it?)

The guy got no responses for six weeks with maybe his first post to the list. Additionally, the forum on Nabble is entitled "Cygwin Users". A simple 'No, the devs do in fact read this list' would suffice. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/cygwin-makes-shared-folders-on-vista-tf4360979.html#a13187930 Sent from the Cygwin Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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/
