    When mounted virtual Windows' C: drive from Mac finder, it is mounted as like '/Volumes/[C] Windows' on Mac's filesystem.
    By changing directory into the path on Terminal like:
    $ cd Volumes/[C] Windows/
    and executes:
    $ ls -l
    It shows any file's permission as ''-rw-rw-rw-", and any folder's permission as "drwxrwxrwx".
    It seems they cannot be modified by "chmod" command. As a result, some tool chains fail to execute script files on Windows volume.

    How can I change the permissions?

    Any suggestions on this question. I would like to do the same thing. My issue is that I want to update a file via PHP running a webserver on the mac. I had this working at one time but cannot remember how to allow PHP permissions to read/write to a shared folder on Windows Pro directory?
