Btw. Can anybody reproduce this problem with trailing dots and spaces in filenames on other filesytems than netapp? It would be quite helpful to get feedback from people using filesystems which are recognized by Cygwin as nwfs, unixfs, mvfs, or cifs. For testing, try to create *in Cygwin* a file called "foo." and a file " foo ". If it works, and if a following `ls' and `rm' on the file works as well, everything's fine. If some error occurs, especially "No such file or directory", then that filesystem probably requires special handling just like netapp. Thanks, Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
