Just to bring some closure to this side-discussion, I'm the original poster, and that *was* my first ever post to this list. I am using Nabble, for this list and numerous others. I find Nabble to be quite a good way to keep up with various lists. I *believed* that this was a user's list, possibly because it was listed that way in Nabble. However, checking today, I see that this list is now called "Cygwin list". Either it has been changed since last week or I was just confused last week with the numerous other Nabble lists that I frequent. Sorry for that error. Now, as to the original question about shared folders being created by cygwin on vista, it appears that a solution is in hand, though I have not yet tested it in my envrionment. Indeed I had tried some googling, and even searching the archives of this list (using Nabble) before the post, but I guess I wasn't using to right search strings. I've had so many fights with vista, absolutely nothing surprises me when it behaves strangely. Might I suggest a link on the home page entitled something like "Cygwin on Vista" with tips on how to best survive vista. Meanwhile, MANY THANKS to all the developers of cygwin. I simply could not function on windoze without cygwin. You provide an invaluable service. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/cygwin-makes-shared-folders-on-vista-tf4360979.html#a13214221 Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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/
