Here is the situation: > Sort of worked this one out: the problem was that there were 2 lists of mount in registry: - one "system" in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\... - and one "user defined" in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\... (ofc, also in HKEY_USERS...) The solution was to delete all my mounts (either by umount either by deleting apropriate registry keys) and remounting with --system. So my little problem is gone. But: wouldn't be more appropriate (don't know how much developement work would this imply) that cygwin.dll would update the mount table after login.exe is called? This way, the mounts that are defined by a user would be available via sshd logins.
