Yup. A known issue. See the FAQ entry: Why can't my services access network shares? <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.shares> Corinna had this to say about a similar issue with password authentication (have you been pointed at this yet?): <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-08/msg01084.html> For pub-key, the best solution is likely to be the upcoming subauth functionality in 1.7. See <http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2006-07/msg00013.html> for details. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
