chmod problem


Hello Everyone,

	I need to change permissions on several files on my system.
Particularly I need to change the permissions on my keyrings and options
file under GnuPG. I read the FAQ about how to do it and I understand that
I must do it under Windows instead of using chmod. The problem is that I
really don't know enough about Windows to make the correct change. I'm
running Windows 2000. I need to change the permissions to 600 i.e. no
groups or world access. Is there a way to do this? If so can someone
please explain to me exactly what it is I need to do under Windows
2000/Cygwin to make it happen? I know the UNIX stuff backwards and
forwards. It's the Windows stuff that has me stumped.
