Hi Andy, Thanks a lot for your help.
I have successfully accessed the sharable PC using command "cd //server_ip_address" But to access the shared folder it is saying permission denied. Actually, that shared folder folder have user id and password. How Can I give user id and password using cd command to access that window sharable folder ? -- Thanks & Regards, Neeraj Sahu On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 11:07 AM, Andy Koppe <andy.ko...@gmail.com> wrote: >> I am going to present the seminar on Cygwin in my organization.In that >> seminar I want to show you can access windows shared folder of any PC >> from Cygwin.
