Re: Use of acl on smb related filesystems


Greetings, Andrew DeFaria!

With native ACL support. (Or absence of it.)
Flag "noacl" only means that Cygwin will not try to tap the ACL to mimick the
Linux/Unix access masks.

I suggest you do not use Cygwin ACL with network shares.
Been giving grief to users long time since.
