I'm glad it has such a simple solution. > One weird thing though, the directory permission are 700 and yet I can > list the content of the directory, cd in it and add/delete files.

Same thing with executing binary (I was > able to execute a binary file copied on the share even though I couldn't > execute scripts)? Most of Cygwin relys on the permission checks of the underlying OS. In case of scripts, that's not possible. Therefore it has to check script permissions explicitely. Note that it doesn't do a simple POSIX permission bit check, rather it calls an OS function asking "does *this* account have the right to execute *that* file?" That should result in the most consistent behaviour, as far as Windows consistency goes.
