Hello. I have a couple questions regarding
> Windows Explorer will inherit the permissions of the
> parent directory by default, whereas Cygwin will always create a new set
> of ACLs (or, at least, I haven't found a way to make Cygwin directories
> inherit the parent's ACLs).
from the recent thread "Re: Login behaviour oddities: won't run
.profile" (http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00966.html)
Is this behavior a feature or a bug?
Is there a global setting to cause every file and directory created in
Cygwin to simply inherit the Windows ACL of its parent directory?
Thank you.
