RE: 1.7.1: net use missing NFS mounted drives


Just to restate, I do NOT have UAC enabled when this issue occurs.

I found and tried the EnableLinkedConnections registry key you mentioned
and it didn't help.

The drives themselves are mounted and available via /cygdrive.  It's
just
that "net use" doesn't report them.  Only "mount" does.

The account I'm running is in the Administrators group.  I logged on
as a user with "regular" privileges and "net use" works fine from within
Cygwin.

Does that offer any clues?

No.  I can't reproduce this issue.  The only way to reproduce it is
to switch on UAC, mount the drives in the non-elevated session, and
start an elevated shell.  And even then there's a registry key which
allows to change that behaviour.  I don't know its name off-hand,
but it shouldn't be too hard to find in the web.
