Sorry, I didn't make it clear enough. I install Cygwin tree with
other goodies on a Samba volume exported from a Linux machine. It
works fine on client machines. However, when I am in the Lab or on
the floor, machines are not always networked. I made a CD from Linux
side and try to achieve the same thing. he file content on the CD is
correct, (!<symlink>xemacs-21.1.10.exe^@), with a permission of
r--r--r--. However, it is not recognized as symlink by Cygwin. I
read the Cygwin doc and it mentioned system bit. What is it in Unix
terms? How do I set it with mkisofs?
