Hmmm, this is interesting. A little further checking seems to show that 
when logged in via ssh from a FreeBSD system to a Win2K system, the drive 
mapping shown via 'net use' are per-login. I also have a cygwin 
window/shell up on the box, and can do 'net use /d g:' in my ssh session, 
which works, and shows G: gone when I do 'net use', however, the cygwin 
window on the box, and a DOS window on the box both still show G: as being 
available, and I can do 'dir g:' with no problems.

What gives. Am I crazy, or just deluded?
