chmod

[Antanas Romas]

Earnie,

I was using chmod command; however, I could not change permissions as it is 
seen below (a copy from a PC screen):

ANTANAS-DATOR:test>ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r--   1 500      544             5 Mar 21 16:00 test
ANTANAS-DATOR:test>chmod 777 test
ANTANAS-DATOR:test>ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r--   1 500      544             5 Mar 21 16:00 test
ANTANAS-DATOR:test>

what can be wrong? Maybe I am typing something incorrectly?

Thank you in advance,
With best regards,
Antanas

chmod

[Simha, Shuba]

I downloaded cygwin for my winNT 4. 
I am using SSH & SCP from Cygwin to connect to a remote host(with a
different username as that of cygwin) & get some files. But when I do scp,
it says "permission denied". I tried changing the permissions of the
homedir, but since chmod does not work on cygwin (which is very
disgusting!!), I am stuck here !!
I read all the documentation, FAQ & user guides about chmod. I badly want
scp to work, please help...
What about ntea? How do I set this environment variable? I want to make
clear that this client machine is used for heavy applications, that are
memory & space intensive. I understand that ntea creates a file that grows
extensively! Are there any possible solutions for my problem??

Any help asap is highly appreciated.

Thanks..
SS

Are you suggesting that you're running NT 4 with FAT partitions?  If so, 
setting your CYGWIN environment variable to ntea is your only option for 
getting chmod to work with Cygwin.  If you use NTFS partitions, you're better 
off setting ntsec.  Since you've already read the user guide documentation, 
I'm sure I don't need to point you to the page that describes these settings 
and what they mean.

Hope that's helpful to you,

It's not disgusting, you're simply wrong.

Certainly.  If this doesn't work for you by default, read the user doc and
FAQ's w.r.t to chmod and security/permissions.  The short answer is that 
this will work as expected on NT only and only if you set ntsec and/or ntea
on your CYGWIN environment variable.  The docs give the details of these 
changes and why you may or may not want to exercise these options.

[Richard Mansfield]

I am trying to install fetchmail in cygwin. (My laptop can't run XFree86.)
The problem I am having is that I can't get chmod to work to get the
proper permissions for the .fetchmailrc file!!!

$ ls -l .fetchmailrc

mode of `.fetchmailrc' changed to 0600 (rw-------)

Hm, sounds like an FAQ to me.  Did you look at the FAQ, specifically the 
entry:

Why doesn't chmod work?
http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC44

?

If not, you may want to review this and any other related FAQ entry.  If 
these don't help and you don't see anything useful in other documentation
(User's Guide, mail archives, etc.), you'll need to provide some more 
specifics about your case to the list.

chmod

[Facey Brian]

Dear Developers,

I am using cygwin 1.3.6-6 on Windows NT 4 Server SP 6 and cannot do a
chmod on a file.  The permissions just remain the same.  I even did a
chmod -v 600 on a file.  The output showed that the permissions had
changed.  However, when I did an ls -la, the permissions remained the
same.

Please advise.


Thanks,


Brian Facey

I think you should investigate the CYGWIN environment variable
and its value "ntsec" ;-)

Well, yes and no...  If it has a .exe or .com or .bat extension, then
it's considered obvious that it should be executable and so the x bit is
set for you.  As I understand it, if you want to be able to run a shell
script without having to use

  bash /path/to/script

then you'll need to set the x bit.  IIRC there's a way to tell Windows
and the Cygwin DLL to recognize .sh extensions, just like it already
recognizes the other three, and then naming your shell scripts
appropriately will make them executable.  Note that I don't think that
this is the same as typical file extensions, but I could be wrong.  Then
you could tie .pl to perl and who knows what else, too.  Perhaps all
that's necessary to have the system honor the shebang line is the x bit;
it's been a while since I was an active cygwin reader.

The bottom line is that you should direct your question to the cygwin
mailing list, where I've sent a copy of this message (Hi, all! Long time,
no see :-) and to which I've directed followups.  Yes, the reporting
address is the bug-fileutils mailing list, but this isn't a bug but
instead a peculiarity of the cygwin environment.

RE: chmod

[Kris Thielemans]

Hi Andrei,

we see only part of your problem here. However, if you're asking on how to
make cygwin recognise that a shell script is executable, you should put
#! /bin/sh
as first line in the script. No chmod necessary (This is a FAQ actually).
(I don't know if chmod would work/is necessary with the ntsec feature
enabled. Hopefully someone else can clarify this and put it in the
FAQ/User's guide)

just tried with ntsec enabled. if run as ./foo.sh the script foo.sh will run
whether or not the executable bit is set. the only difference was that bash

Lorenzo,

This doesn't seem to be XFree-related, so the proper list is <cygwin at

The FAQ is your friend: <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#SEC45>
However, that entry is missing one important bit: if you're on a FAT32

I don't even really know what the question is anymore!  chmod is a no-op
on Win98.  Cygwin fakes permissions there, and it won't work.

If this is not clear enough, or did not answer your question, please
carefully follow the guidlines presented in the URL above, post to
the correct list with an informative subject line, and then maybe you'll
get the answer your looking for.

It's the subliminal messages we put in the cygwin DLL source code.  As
soon as you start to become more knowledgeable about cygwin, you
automatically become meaner.  Glad to see it's working.
