What are the permissions? Not the owner/group, but the permissions.
Ex :
$ ls -l ~/.bashrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 derrick None 1615 Feb 28 17:02 /home/derrick/.bashrc
^^^^^^^^^^
These are the permissions. The owner (me) has read and write
permission while the group (None -- must be due to cygwin) has read
only permission and the rest of the world has read only permission
(probably not a good idea, but it's running on top of winodws, I'm the
only user and it's behind a firewall)
Maybe you don't have read permission, or maybe it wants to execute it?
(I don't think cygwin cares very much about execute permission ;-)
HTH,
