Re: 'ls' not finding owner/group of some files created by other user

BUT THEY DO! And they must since why else would doing a trivial 'chmod'
(that doesn't change anything) all of a sudden make them show up.

$ subinacl /noverbose /nostatistic /file
C:\\cygwin\\usr\\local\\bin\\testfolder
/findsid=S-1-5-21-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1005

+File C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\testfolder
/control=0x0
/owner             =mymachine\userA
/pace =mymachine\userA  Type=0x0 Flags=0x0 AccessMask=0x1f01ff

$ grep S-1-5-21-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1005 /etc/passwd
userA:unused:1005:513:U-mymachine\userA,S-1-5-21-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1005:/home/userA:/bin/bash

Note this error doesn't happen if I create a folder (using Windows tools) in
C:  but it does happen in all the other public places I tried, including:
/c/Program Files
/c/cygwin/usr
/c/cygwin/usr/local
/c/cygwin/usr/local/bin
