Sorry, but I doubt that this doesn't work with the latest Cygwin
snapshots. The current rule, when to use the inode information of a
drive is like this:
- If GetDriveType() == DRIVE_UNKNOWN, then we don't trust the inode
information and use name hashes instead.
- All drives have to have FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS == TRUE, otherwise we
use name hashes.
- Remote drives also need to have FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS == TRUE, or
they have to have exactly the following set of flags set to TRUE:
FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH | FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES | FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS
which is the set of flags set to TRUE for the usual Samba 3.x shares.
So your above volume information is evaluated as an unreliable drive
(remote, FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS == FALSE and not Samba), which results
in using pathname hashes instead of the inode numbers returned by the
appropriate Windows functions. I don't see how it's possible to get
the "skipping file..." message with a recent snapshot.
