Hello Cygwin, I am experiencing problems with spaces and/or parentheses in samba share names. Changing the share name is not an option, because they are physical drives, connected to a mac.
The following works fine from a dos box, and also from the gui with 'Map network drive', but fails miserably from the cygwin prompt. $ net use Q: "$(cygpath -w '//macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)')" "bartels" /user:"bartels" The command completed successfully. $ ls q:/ ls: cannot access q:/: Input/output error This is not a question of privileges or configuration: other shares with vanilla names work fine. The mac logs do not immediately reveal any clues. Considering that the dos box and the gui have access, I am inclined to blame cygwin. Any ideas?
