Hi,

I'd like to report the following problem:

rnissl AT MERLIN ~
$ mkdir --verbose -p //elton/tmp/xx1
created directory `//elton'created directory `//elton/tmp'mkdir: created
directory `//elton/tmp/xx1'

rnissl AT MERLIN ~
$ mkdir --verbose -p //elton/tmp/xx1
mkdir: created directory `//elton/tmp/xx1'

rnissl AT MERLIN ~
$ mkdir --verbose -p //elton/tmp/xx1
mkdir: created directory `//elton/tmp/xx1'

The command's don't create the directory xx1 on share \\elton\tmp. Instead the
first command creates the directories /elton and /elton/tmp. But xx1 is
never/nowhere created.

I'm using the latest available cygwin packages on Windows 2000 SP1.

Bye.
