Curiously, you can cd into subdirectories on the S: drive, but you can't list
the root directory on S:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /
$ cd /cygdrive/s
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /cygdrive/s
$ ls
ls: cannot open directory .: Permission denied
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /cygdrive/s
$ cd perl
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /cygdrive/s/perl
$ ls
docs tc
which seems a bit weird.... if you go to the S: drive in an native windows
command box, then dir S: works fine.....
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
Specify the user name and password to "net use"? If this is not it, we
need 'cygcheck -srv' output, your '/etc/passwd' and '/etc/group' entries for
'root', and whether you ssh in with password or public key authentication.
The former should work. The latter requires the user name and password
supplied to "net use" as I mentioned above.
