Hi,
I really had to give up and ask you all a bit of help understanding
what is going on.
Like the subject summarizes: After a fresh install of cygwin 1.7 (made
with local user Administrator), all folder and files ownerships from
cygwin root are: Administrator:None.
Administrator@vmguest ~
$ ls -la /
total 9
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:48 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:48 ..
-rwxrwxrwx 1 Administrator None 57 Apr 17 11:48 Cygwin.bat
-rwxrwxrwx 1 Administrator None 7022 Apr 17 11:48 Cygwin.ico
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 bin
d--x--x--x 4 Administrator None 0 Dec 1 2006 cygdrive
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 dev
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 etc
drwxrwxrwx 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:48 home
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 lib
dr-xr-xr-x 10 Administrator None 0 Dec 1 2006 proc
drwxrwxrwt 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 13:12 tmp
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 usr
drwxr-xr-x 1 Administrator None 0 Apr 17 11:47 var
This makes very difficult to share the installation with other users -
that will be the main objective in my case...
This is being my number one suspect for a number of difficulties I've
had trying to install a cygwin toolbox (I'll refrain from talking
about that for now) on this host (it's a Vmware guest, actually)
Is this an expected behaviour? Because right now it doesn't seems ok to me...
Besides the usual 'cygcheck -s -v -r' in attach, I also send some
background technical information run from Windows cmd.exe, before
setup.exe runs, just to make sure that the 'Windows view' is the
expected one - and it is.
D:\install\cygwin>whoami /user /groups
