Well, that's a completely different thing then. You need Windows to
authenticate that share as the other user then. I think you're stuck
with "net use" option of the FAQ. You can either invoke it each time
you log in via ssh, put it in your favorite rc file, or have a separate
script to do it (which you'd invoke each time).
I've yet to get "net use" to work for me via cygwin.
net use Z: \\W.X.Y.Z\Share <password>
tries to prompt me with a question:
Z: has a remembered connection to \\W.X.Y.Z\Share. Do you want to
overwrite the remembered connection? (Y/N) [Y]:
No valid response was provided
I.e., it never gives me the opportunity to answer the question.
If I try changing the drive letter, I get error 67, the network name cannot
be found.
Note that "net use" by itself continues to show the "Unavailable" status
for the Z: drive with that share.
