Hi, I've discovered a problem with mkdir under 1.7.x that worked fine under 1.5.x.
I'm using 1.7.5-1 (I updated to the latest this morning). I'm having a problem with mkdir -p when using DFS shares. Assume dir exists and newdir doesn't. Assume computername is the UNC name of a real computer. Assume dfs-name is the UNC name of DFS "virtual" computer - not sure what the real terminology is. The first 3 all work fine. mkdir //computername/sharename/dir/newdir mkdir -p //computername/sharename/dir/newdir mkdir //dfs-name/dfs-share/dir/newdir This one fails: mkdir -p //dfs-name/dfs-share/dir/newdir mkdir: cannot create directory '//dfs-name': No such file or directory This used to work fine under 1.5.x, so I assume it's a new bug. -- Dave Hylands Shuswap, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ -- 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
