Subject: Can't chmod/chown any more on FAT32 after doing cyglsa-config
Date: Sun, 27 Nov 2011 17:52:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ED2719A.8010201@yahoo.com.cn> (raw)

Hello forks,

I wanted to setup cron as a service, but after first doing cyglsa-config
and reboot, it turned out that I can't do any permission related
operation in my home directory any more, just as the title described. I
have two question is : Is this a supposed behavior and what should I do
if I want to change the permission of a file in my home directory now ?
( cygwin is installed on a FAT32 partition).  Is this process reversible
and if yes, how would I unset cyglsa ?
Cygwin version is 1.7.9 (0.237/5/3) running on Windows XP SP3. Hope
someone can help explain this a bit ? I really appreciate any possible help.

Thank you.

Benton
