when trying to delete from explorer: 'Cannot delete manpath.exe: Access 
is denied.  The source file may be in use.'

when trying to view the security tab from explorer: 'You only have 
permission to view the current security information on manpath.exe.'

when trying to delete from cmd: 'Access is denied'

when trying to rmdir /s from cmd: 'cygwin\bin\manpath.exe.lnk - Access 
is denied'

when trying to rm from cygwin: 'rm: cannot unlink 'manpath.exe': 
Permission denied'

i have already tried reinstalling cygwin and deleting, doing various 
chowns/chgrps (presently the file is administrator:root and does allow 
chowns), and i have already rebooted.  os is win2k advanced server sp3 
with an ntfs filesystem (hardware ide raid5).

please respond via direct email in addition to the list.
