It takes only creating shares to offer thru samba, for cygwin bash to
be able to navigate them with cd //host/share. No mounting, or if
there is, I didn't have to specifically configure it.
Smb is native to windows... so maybe that is the reason.
Right. Windows does indeed mount filesystems but does it without
asking you, much like linux mounts /root without asking.
So, I'm thinking you might be very interested in trying Paul's
suggested 'mc', which has its own built-in command line of sorts,
although it's not actually a full bash prompt IIUC.
Depend on what you need to do while visiting a share, it might
be perfect for your purpose. (See Paul's reply.)
