I have mountet my home directory from a HP-UX box with PC-NFS. I am not able to create files named aux from my Cygwin Bash. When I make one in my home directory on the HP box and try to do an ls in my Cygwin bash, it list the file name. However, a ls -l make it stop. A Ctrl-C breaks it. The last entry in the strace output is that ls is trying to open the aux file (may include trace file if needed). When I try to open a catalog called aux in my bash shell in a local catalog I get: mkdir aux mkdir: cannot make directory `aux': Not a directory Trying to create one from the Explorer failes with the error message: Can not rename New Folder. A file name with the name you specified allready exsist. A find on my entire C: disk reveiles no files named aux. Maybe the aux is special reserved file name in NT?
