In this case, they are not needed either. Here is how I have to setup I have my CVS repository on a unix server that I have to access from cygwin. I map my private branch as a windows mapped drive (from windows explorer Tools->Map Network Drive...). This mapped drive shows up as a new drive (in this case "y" and "z"). I am able to browse and read/write into these mapped drives (they do get reflected on unix). However, I am not even able to read those folders through cygwin which is vital because my Intel compiler is usable only through that option. I am able to navigate the directories through cygwin, but read and write fail. Thanks Uday > Best regards, > Spiro. > > -- > Spiro R.
