I've used cygwin for lots of years, and this is kind of weird to me. My operations guys set up some Windows Server 2012 R2 servers with Cygwin x86-64 2.2.1.
There's a CIFS mount (from an HNAS) that I use a lot that is giving me problems. For example: $ ls /cygdrive/m/install ls: cannot access /cygdrive/m/install: Bad address But: $ ls m:/install Works just great. Using /cygdrive/m I can list the contents of the root of the drive, but I can't read any files. And any subdirectory just gives me the "Bad address" error. Everything (except completion) works just fine with m:/ paths. This isn't a huge deal. I mostly use cygwin on these servers to manage them with scripts, so I've changed my configuration variables to <drive letter>: paths and everything seems to work. But I did spend nearly half a day figuring this out, so I'm curious if there's a configuration problem or a known issue that my searches haven't uncovered yet.
