Dear Marty: I think we (I, anyway) can be more helpful with some more information.

- What is "the virtual box share" here?

- What does "see" mean?  That is, what specific command(s) are you using, and what are the
   outputs you get that lead you to this conclusion?

- Are we talking about Cygwin bash in both cases?  The same user logged in?
