It just creates a path translation table which is used to convert POSIX paths into their equivalent Windows paths. So if you need to enter a password to access the share using a Windows program or net use the path first, the same will be true for Cygwin. -Jeremy --------------enig4392340DF3E455A67B8ECB24 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEUEARECAAYFAkxlcsYACgkQHt4KKRq6ZjeKUACdGrrJpYhJOBcIjTlawLeb/x7A 7UMAl2ipcrr9CBsHKzWD+8pMgBpOy68= =qaHv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig4392340DF3E455A67B8ECB24--
