If I ssh (as root) into my Windows 2003 box running Cygwin and then in the Cygwin shell create a network share, then things don't quite work as I expected..

Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? Why is permission denied in the /cygdrive/s directory even though one can cd into its subdirectories? many thanks -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
