Try the latest developer snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ > How do we know If cygwin recognizes our netapp as netapp? (Mount says CIFS or > VFAT) Then it doesn't.

It's very annoying, for instance, that Netapps, Samba and others return a file system type of "NTFS" or "FAT", rather than to return something *unique*, like "Netapp XXL", or "Samba 3.5.3". That makes life so much harder to figure out the filesystem and its capabilities. Anyway, if the latest snapshot does not solve your problem, install the csih package from the distro (probably you already have it) and run $ cd <path-to-some-directory-on-the-netapp> $ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo . <-- note the dot and paste the output into your reply.
