Still no luck:
>From a network login:
% mount -s -b //scooby/homes /homes
mount: warning - /homes does not exist.
% mount
\\scooby\homes on /homes type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
Z: on /scooby type system (binmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
% ls -l /homes
/bin/ls: /homes: Permission denied
% id
uid=1006(bfriesen) gid=513(None)
groups=0(Everyone),513(None),544(Administrators),545(Users)
However, the 'ls -l' works fine from a console window.
Any more ideas
Bob
