Hi Corinna many thanks for your quick answer.

I can delete the file with Windows Explorer. getfacl doesn't show anything strange. I can delte the file once the file share gets @connected@ again.

I cannot reproduce this problem. I created a share on a server just for this purpose, then, on the client, made it available offline and synced it once. Then I disconnected the NIC: $ net use Status Local Remote Network ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disconnected H: \\fileserver\myusername$ Microsoft Windows Network The command completed successfully. $ touch /mnt/h/xyz/testfile $ rm /mnt/h/xyz/testfile Works like a charm. I tried the same with an additional explicit Cygwin mount, which worked fine as well. Can you run rm under strace? Maybe there's a status code which gives some helpful information. Look for the "unlink_nt" function. ------------------- I did the following $ strace rm /h/TEMP/testfile > /h/TEMP/rm.log rm: cannot remove `/h/TEMP/testfile': Permission denied The few lines around unlink_nt are as follows (full log file attached): 87 230535 [main] rm 5200 path_conv::check: this->path(H:\TEMP\testfile), has_acls(0) 1107 231642 [main] rm 5200 unlink_nt: Setting delete disposition failed, status = 0xC0000022 117 231759 [main] rm 5200 seterrno_from_nt_status: /ext/build/netrel/src/cygwin-1.7.7-1/winsup/cygwin/syscalls.cc:714 status 0xC0000022 -> windows error 5 94 231853 [main] rm 5200 geterrno_from_win_error: windows error 5 == errno 13 77 231930 [main] rm 5200 unlink: -1 = unlink (/h/TEMP/testfile) Does this help? A few things that might be relevant: - Even after disconnection (e.g. switching off wireless etc), "net use" still reports "OK" for my drive, not "DISCONNECTED" as in your case. - I did not make the whole drive available offline, but only some subfolders. (It's too big for the whole thing). In the above example, h:\TEMP *is* made available offline. However, I just tried to map z: to \\fileserver\username$\TEMP, where z: is then available offline, and then repeat the above experiment, with the same (negative) result. - I forgot to say that I'm running XP sp3. Thanks again Kris
