File Permissions

[Duane Barb]

I'm runnig the latest cygwin release on Windows XP. I'm having problems with
file permissions in cygwin, chmod doesn't seem to work. After googling this I
set the CYGWIN variable to "ntsec" and it still doesn't work. I first discovered
this when trying to use a pub/priv key with ssh, ssh complains that the id_rsa
file is world readable and won't use it! How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Duane
