* LS and TAR don't see any file permissions ("ls -l" shows "----------+ ...")

When running "ls -l" the permissions field shows as "----------+".
Oddly, "ls -l" shows the correct permissions if the pathname uses the
windows drive letter syntax. eg:
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c
$ ls -l tmp/plb.txt
----------+ 1 ga2binn Domain Users 5527 Mar 3 13:54 tmp/plb.txt
$ ls -l c:/tmp/plb.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 ga2binn Domain Users 5527 Mar 3 13:54 c:/tmp/plb.txt
Similarly, TAR images have no permissions on the files contained. eg:
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c/tmp
$ tar cf - plb.txt | tar vtf -
---------- ga2binn/Domain Users 5527 2011-03-03 13:54 plb.txt
Even more oddly, this behaviour (both LS and TAR) occurs on a new PC
that I am moving to. I have the same version of Cygwin on an older PC
which does not have the problem. I have diffed the "cygcheck -s -v -r"
output from both PC's and can see nothing that would explain the broken
behaviour on the new PC.
Both PC's are running the same version of XP SP3.
I have also reinstalled Cygwin with the latest version (its cygcheck
attached).

Which means that the owner has no permissions, but that there are ACLs
which allow others permissions. Not entirely unusual, given Windows'
ability to create files with a different owner than the current user,
while allowing the current user to access the file (typically when done
to places like the desktop, and caused by inheritance ACLs present on
the directory where the problematic file is being created in the first
place).

That's because using a dos-style path disregards ACL parsing, and fakes
the permission bits instead. The + shows that ACLs are present, and
'getfacl tmp/plb.txt' will show you the difference between the owner and
your permissions.

Here, the problem is that tar doesn't preserve ACLs by default, so the
original POSIX mode (000) is preserved while the ACLs are lost,
resulting in an truly inaccessible file (note that there is no longer a
+ in the listing).

That's another big case where the user ids on the old pc do not
correpsond to the user ids on the new pc; copying preserved the old user
id, but gave ACL access to the new user, resulting in odd permissions.

Many thanks indeed for that info, Eric.
I know it's not a Cygwin issue, but can you suggest an easy way to get
miserable Windows to copy files to a new machine in a way that does
give the current user ownership (ideally using some normal-ish Windows
commands)?
I tried using Windows Explorer copies and Winzip-ed .zip archives -
both end up with the problem below.
I have done this before when transferring PC's, but then I would have
been the same user on both, Here I am also moving to a different
domain\username on the new PC.

Have found my solution ... robocopy. Using it's /secfix option copied
files are owned by the copying user.
eg: robocopy x:\tmp .\tmp /e /secfix
Note: you need a not-too-old version of Robocopy for the /secfix
support (I was using v 1.96).
