What are the correct permissions for cygwin and how do I set them ?


Hi,

I'm using w2k. Today I've been migrated to a new domain so now I do have new
sids.

Of course the permissions of my files are now wrong. How do I correct
them ? Whome they should belong to ? I've renewed /etc/passwd and
/etc/groups using

mkgroup -d >/etc/group

mkpasswd -d >/etc/passwd

but this seems not enough. What else should I try ? E.g. mutt dumps
while accessing a local mailbox.

Gruss Olaf Föllinger
