Having read:
http://cygwin.com/1.7/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table

I'm still at a loss how to activate newly added mount points
from fstab?

The standard Unix paradigm would be mount -a or mount <target>
but none of these work. The only way I've found is to restart
the cygwin prompt which is obviously not ideal.

Any I missing something or has this functionality just been
overlooked?

    Regards
    Steve
