Hi!

Does Cygwin 3.6 support filesystems which have been forwarded by the
Windows Remote Client (mstsc.exe) ?

I tried to access such a forwarded dir, but $ ls -l # returned this:

Any idea what is going wrong in this case ?

Short update:
On the machine which got the forwarded filesystems I get this:
---- snip ----
$ nfs_ea '\??\UNC\TSCLIENT\T\test1' getnfs3attr
Querying extended attribute 'NfsV3Attributes' on file
'\??\UNC\TSCLIENT\T\test1':
ZwQueryEaFile('"') failed with 0xc0000002
---- snip ----

0xC0000002 == STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED

The Windows NFSv3 and NFSv4.1/NFSv.2 drivers implement support for
"NfsV3Attributes", so it seems filesystem forwarding in RDP does not
support EAs (=extended attributes).
Powershell itself can handle files&&cd etc., it seems only
applications which rely on "NfsV3Attributes" are affected...

... maybe in Cygwin there are places where the return code for
|nfs_fetch_fattr3()| isn't checked ?

Run a Cygwin program under Cygwin strace and redirect the output to prog.strace which is a time stamped text log of Cygwin internal and Windows "system calls".
