I couldn't see the automatic /cygwin/c, cygwin/d mounts. Oddly, they appeared if the connecting user was in the Administrator group, but not otherwise. I worked around it by creating explicit system mounts under cygwin. mount -f -s -t "c:" "/c" mount -f -s -t "d:" "/d" Bob. -----Original Message----- From: Bob Friesenhahn [mailto:bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us] Sent: Sunday, June 02, 2002 2:12 PM To: cygwin@cygwin.com Subject: Cygwin mounts not available when logged in over network With the current release of Cygwin I am experiencing the bizzare problem that a samba mount which is mounted as drive "Z:" on my Windows XP system is available to Cygwin applications when accessed from a Windows console window (Cygwin default or rxvt), but does not appear to be mounted if I access the system via remote login with telnet, ssh, or xterm from a remote X11 server. In a console window 'ls /cydrive/z' lists the expected files but I see the error /bin/ls: /cygdrive/z: No such file or directory if the shell is accessed over the network. I assume that Cygwin's mount mapping is not being activated for some reason. I am currently using zsh as my shell, compiled under Cygwin, but the same problem occurs when using Cygwin's bash shell. Does anyone know the reason for this problem? Is there a workaround?
