This permissions problem has existed for awhile, and I'd like to find
a solution.
CMD.EXE is able to create files inside directories on a standard
Windows share, but from a Bash shell on Cygwin, a permission denied
message occurs, and this is in most if not all directories:
-bash: .cpan/build/foo2: Permission denied
Below are equivalent commands run first from a CMD.EXE window, which
succeeds, and below this from a Cygwin window, where I didn't used to
have problems on this shared drive but for the past few months it's
been a problem:
CACLS used to show directory permissions.
