No, it is an NTFS on a network drive. Is it related?

Yes. You probably lack the SeRestorePrivilege right on your login token, or for some strange reason you have nosmbntsec set. RTFM: <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html>

nosmbntsec is default.

If this is true then the docs need to be updated, or at least clarified.


"(no)smbntsec - if set, use ntsec on remote drives as well (this is the
default)."


Urgh. This is how I intended to implement it when I did ... three
years ago? Dunno anymore, but nosmbntsec is default already for ages.

I've changed the documentation.

I'm trying to understand why one would want ntsec on by default and smbntsec off by default?
