My problem is that if I access a network files rapidly the network connection breaks down after few seconds (10-20) and remote server is not accessible (also not for windows tools). The problem is hard to reproduce (often is everything working fine). Following script illustrates the problem: #!/bin/sh while true do t=`grep foo /cygdrive/n/path/to/network/file` done The problem persists also for 'n:/path...' filename form. If I add a 'sleep 1' command inside the loop or execute script on local drive everything is ok. Thanx for any help, and sorry if the question is off-topic, Ljubo -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
