Hi,
(running on 1.3.20)
"df ." seems to work fine on traditionally mounted network drives,  but not
on UNC (//server/share) drives:

dobrin AT THEODOLITE:/home/dobrin> cd //billabong/dist
dobrin AT THEODOLITE:/billabong/dist> df .
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
df: `.': No such file or directory
dobrin AT THEODOLITE:/billabong/dist> net use r: \\\\billabong\\dist
The command completed successfully.

dobrin AT THEODOLITE:/billabong/dist> cd /cygdrive/r
dobrin AT THEODOLITE:/cygdrive/r> df .
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
r:                    17936380  16384152   1552228  92% /cygdrive/r


Is there an easy way to get this to work that I'm not thinking of?  I'd hate
to write into my scripts to "net use" device every time.
I tried searching "df" and "UNC" in mail list  but didn't see anything.
Thanks
Bruce D.
