To all:
I was able to fire up one of my backup machine (32 bit F14) and, via a
ssh from cygwin, could see that a directory I had created under cygwin
had protections of "drwxrwxrwx". It displayed as "black" on a mid-level
green (aka totally unreadable). I ran "chmod go-w <theDir>" and then did
another listing ... it was back to blue over black (and I gotta admit,
the blue is too deep to really stand out). But blue is what I expect for
a 'ls' (now that I know /etc/bashrc is redefining 'ls').
I am thinking that most of my issues are from cygwin files/dirs that
don't have protections in the Microsoft world being mis-read under F14
and that the solution is a script to properly set protections when
bringing a file/dir over from cygwin (?).
Can't wait to see how I got RGB red on black as that is the one I want
to do the "silver bullet" on.
This has very little to do with alot of the conversation on this except
to show that F14/bash/whatever is trying to display based on what it can
find out about a file and if such is not set right, the visuals will suffer.
