Files created through Cygwin (calling a shell script) don't have correct Windows permissions

I am currently running Cygwin on a target Windows Server 2003 machine to fire off a shell script that, among other things, creates a bunch of files on disc. However after the files are created I no longer have permissions to manipulate them through Windows.

When the files are created the owner is getting set to 'SYSTEM' and the permissions for Administrators/Creator Group/Creator Owner/system are set to only 'special permissions' and nothing else. The permissions for Everyone and Users have Read & Execute, List folder contents and Read.

My proble开发者_如何学编程m is that I cannot delete/modify the files now through Windows. I would prefer to have something built into my scripts (either the shell script or something to call in Cygwin) that would allow Administrators full control on the folder and all contents.

My current workaround has been to either do file modifications through Cygwin but this is not preferable. I have also used setfacl -r -m default:other:rwx to add write permissions for the 'Users' group but it doesn't appear to have a recursive option and still doesn't give 'full control'

Is there a better way to use setfacl? Can I call the shell script using different/elevated permissions?

Results of getfacl on a newly created directory:

$ getfacl Directory/
# file: Directory/
# owner: SYSTEM
# group: root
user::rwx
group::r-x
group:Users:rwx
mask:rwx
other:r-x
default:user::rwx
default:group::r-x
default:group:Users:rwx
default:mask:rwx
default:other:r-x

You can try setting umask:

umask u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rwx

That should give user, group, and other read/write/execute on any newly created dirs.

If you only want the modified umask permanently, you can add it to your .bash_profile

Edit - Added example of mkdir before/after umask.

Here's the output of getfacl on a directory created before I set umask:
