If I do "which rm" and "which chmod", it shows that both commands

The attached rm.notworking.trace file is from an "rm -f dac.txt"
command that gets the permission denied error; i.e., when the
permissions on the file are 444. Things seem to start going south
at entry 34276.
Gosh, how many ways to fail does transactional NTFS know?
20 34002 [main] rm 7580 unlink_nt: Trying to delete \??\C:\mydocs\temp\dac.txt, isdir = 0
274 34276 [main] rm 7580 unlink_nt: Opening \??\C:\mydocs\temp\dac.txt for removing R/O failed, status = 0xC0190052
So you're getting a transaction error which isn't covered by the Cygwin
DLL yet. The error is STATUS_TRANSACTIONMANAGER_NOT_ONLINE. Whatever
this means. How on earth can the TxF manager be "not online"?!?
Unfortunately there's only very sparse information about this status
code available.
Before I make any changes to Cygwin, I'll try to get some info from
the Microsoft side of things...
Stay tuned,
