Yeah, thanx for that, however I get the same result after correcting "fstab.c" to "fstab.d". I now have: knel...@cobqdppj1 ~ $ mount | grep ^Q Q: on /qnx type smbfs (binary,ihash,user) knel...@cobqdppj1 ~ $ Interestingly enough, compare what works and what doesn't: FAILS: cp /cygdrive/q/knellis/xyz xyz WORKS: cat /cygdrive/q/knellis/xyz > xyz Also, I wouldn't ask you to modify Cygwin to support this ancient protocol, but I'm still wondering what I have to downgrade to get what worked some number of weeks ago. I've downgraded coreutils to 8.5-2 and cygwin to 1.7.6, but neither helped. Curious about what else could have caused this change in behavior. Would welcome advice on what else I can try. --Ken Nellis
