Thank you, but POSIX style paths make no difference Actually I mentioned it in my first mail, but I did not give any example. Here it is: $ ls -l '//HERA/shared/benchmarks/test' ls: cannot access //HERA/shared/benchmarks/test: No such file or directory $ cmd /c DIR '\\hera\shared\benchmarks\test' /b README.txt $ ls -l '//HERA/shared/benchmarks/test' ls: cannot access //HERA/shared/benchmarks/test/README.txt: No such file or directory total 0 -????????? ? ? ? ? ? README.txt And the same if I use X: or /cygdrive/x, or /mnt/shared > Yes, but only after translating POSIX-style names into windows style names > under the hood.

I understand, but I do not think it does apply in my case. Any further ideas?
