Hmmm, don't see how it can have anything to do with the mapping of a 
networked drive, since the problem started on the NT4 box, at which time 
the scriptlet was located in /cygdrive/e/cygwin/rnc/try.

Since I wanted to demonstrate that it worked on the Linux box (having 
tripped over that one originally!)  each time I hacked one copy of the 
script I then had to move to the other machine and duplicate the changes 
I'd just made.  Clearly this was error-prone, so it made sense to just 
use the copy on the Linux box.  On the NT4 it's accessible as 
/cygdrive/i/rnc/try.

And no, I've never heard of smbntsec.  What's it mean/do?

Regards
Rob
