Without looking, I'm guessing that you have CDPATH set, and that it includes a network path. > > If a prepend with a path, e.g. ./ or ../dir1/dir2 it works immediately. Prepending . or .. disables CDPATH searching. > I've included my cygcheck output. ... > CDPATH = 'D:\' ... > d: cd N/A N/A I almost had it. bash is checking your cdrom drive for a possible match on every unanchored cd call. Also, I have never tested CDPATH with a DOS-style path, but it certainly doesn't help matters. If you still want to use CDPATH in bash, at least convert it to a cygwin-style /cygdrive/d, not d:\. But most likely, since CD paths tend to be transient, you are better off unsetting it altogether. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
