No/ntsec + ACL + Mount Options = ???

[Randall R Schulz <rrschulz at cris dot com>]

Hi,

[ I composed this this morning before Andrew DeFaria sent his recent 
message: "Subject: Permission bits" and didn't know whether to sent it. 
I guess I will, as a second to Andrew's request. ]


As I understand it, the following factors all contribute to the 
ultimate determination of the POSIX file modes assigned by Cygwin:

	ACL
	CYGWIN=ntsec vs. CYGWIN=nontsec
	mount vs. mount -x vs. mount -E vs. mount -X


Could some one who both understands the workings well and has the time 
bring together in one place a concise synopsis of how all these factors 
contribute to the "net" file mode any given file or directory appears 
to have to Cygwin applications? Perhaps a table of some sort?

Randy
