It looks like NFS is not completely to blame. It turns out that doing an "ls" on the directory "/c" or "/exports/c" (both mount points for c:) is also unusually slow, though it takes a mere 45 seconds rather than 17 minutes to return. If I export and mount a subdirectory of c:, however, NFS seems to work satisfactorily. I notice that "ls" reports: /bin/ls: hiberfil.sys: No such file or directory /bin/ls: pagefile.sys: No such file or directory "ls hi<tab>" completes to "ls hiberfil.sys", and shows the same message. Could this have something to do with the slow response? Although if I do an "ls h*", the above response comes back immediately, not after a wait. - Will -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
