Re: Permission denied on a windows share

Why would cygwin need to do more security checking than Windows does? Why would cygwin deny me write access to a file when I can do it with any other Windows application?

It shouldn't.  If the situation is *actually* as you describe it,
then there's a bug in Cygwin.  However, this requires some debugging
in the environment in which this happens... yours.  Perhaps an strace
of the failing call helps.
Cool. Thanks.
Here is the strace from a command "cp /tmp/install.sh .", with tmp being on my local drive and "." being "//server/jehan".
