Re: CYGWIN smbntfs default value

Which is correct behavior?
    Cygwin DLL version info:
        DLL version: 1.3.21

There is no such setting. There is an "smbntsec" setting, which is on by default, so I assume that's what you meant. BTW, how do you know it's not on? "On by default" means that if the CYGWIN environment variable doesn't contain any mention of it, it's on.

Sorry. smbntsec is what I meant. You know, the setting that yeilds ntfs acls. How can I tell? Er, on a samba 2.2.7a share (yes I know, I get upgraded soon) [homes] nt acl support = yes

Linux shell:
-rw-------    1 doug     doug          951 Jan  6  2002 id_rsa

Cygwin shell, no CYWIN variable defined
$ if [ -z "$CYGWIN" ]; then echo false; else echo $CYGWIN; fi
false
-rw-r--r--    1 doug     None          951 Jan  6  2002 id_rsa

$ if [ -z "$CYGWIN" ]; then echo false; else echo $CYGWIN; fi
smbntsec
-rw-------    1 doug     doug          951 Jan  6  2002 id_rsa
$ export CYGWIN=nosmbntsec
-rw-r--r--    1 doug     None          951 Jan  6  2002 id_rsa

ssh is pretty vocal about this.


Which documentation are you referring to? <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html> should be the most up-to-date one. Igor

Yes, that's the one. The env variable CYGWIN documentation.
