This looks like sort of a permission problem.  Cygwin doesn't recognize
the owner and group SIDs in the remote file's ACLs.  Usually this only
occurs on a Samba share.  The most easy way to check is to mount the
drive with the "noacl" mount flag as documented in
http://cygwin.com/1.7/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table and see if it
works then.

This looks very much like a really, *really* old Samba, something older
than version 3.2.  It might be helpful if you could figure that out and
tell us, even if it's just for the records for now.

Other than that, please send an *attached* cygcheck output per
