Hmmm...
The host account 'cwilson' is a member of 'Power Users', so I added
'Take Ownership' user right to that group. Then, I logged off/on on the
host machine, and logged off/on on the client machine.
no change in behavior -- still '-r--r--r--'.
Then, I added 'cwilson' on the host machine to the host's Administrators
group. logon/logoff on host/client.
works. '-rw-rw-r--'.
It appears that 'Take Ownership' is not sufficient. What other rights
are being used -- because I'd rather not add my host account to the
Administrators group on a permanent basis.
