Does the unc mapping > give you the same errors? The unc mapping, e.g. //d/projects/taglib, does give the same errors. The problem only occurs when both machines are running Windows 95. There is no problem with a Windows 95 machine mounting a FAT disk from a Windows NT 3.51 machine, or for the Windows NT machine mounting a Windows 95 disk. I'd been happily using gnu-win32 for a year before I had the misfortune to need to mount a Windows 95 disk from another Windows 95 machine...
