Strange cygdrive problem
I upgraded to the latest cygwin version yesterday and since then I have a problem I never encountered before and it may have to do with the Netware file system. Here is what mount shows: C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) F: on /cygdrive/f type nwfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) G: on /cygdrive/g type nwfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) M: on /cygdrive/m type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) P: on /cygdrive/p type nwfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Y: on /cygdrive/y type nwfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Z: on /cygdrive/z type nwfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) The problem I am having is with the F, G, P, Y, and Z drives which are of nwfs type. C and M which are ntfs are fine. ls -l in cydrive shows the following: total 0 drwxrwxr-x+ 1 Administrators SYSTEM 0 2010-01-04 11:46 c -rwxr-xr-x 1 Schwar Domain Users 0 2009-04-22 15:22 f -rwxr-xr-x 1 Schwar Domain Users 0 2009-04-22 15:22 g drwx--+ 1 Administrators 0 2009-10-12 13:28 m -rwxr-xr-x 1 Schwar Domain Users 0 2009-04-22 15:22 p -rwxr-xr-x 1 Schwar Domain Users 0 2009-04-22 15:22 y -rwxr-xr-x 1 Schwar Domain Users 0 2009-04-22 15:22 z As you can see the nwfs mounts do not show up as a directory (d) is missing. If I cd into one of the problem directories, lets say "cd f": "ls" generates the following error: "ls: cannot open directory .: No such file or directory" "ls ." just shows "." However "ls -l" works fine and lists the files in the directory. The same problem occurs also in all sub-directories of these mounts. I also found out that the behavior changes as I change the LANG setting. For example setting LANG=en_US causes even "ls -l" to fail in these mounts but setting to "C.UTF-8" or "en_US.UTF-8" allows "ls -l" to work (but still not "ls"). Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?

Here is the output for the local (c) drive which works fine: $ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/c Device Type: 7 Characteristics: 20 Volume Name: <> Serial Number : 3628886972 Max Filenamelength : 255 Filesystemname : Flags : 700ff FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH : TRUE FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES : TRUE FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK: TRUE FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS: TRUE FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION : TRUE FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS : TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES : TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_REMOTE_STORAGE: FALSE FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS: TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION: TRUE FILE_NAMED_STREAMS : TRUE FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME : FALSE FILE_SEQUENTIAL_WRITE_ONCE : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS : FALSE This is for the NTFS network drive which is also working fine: $ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/m Device Type: 7 Characteristics: 10 Volume Name: Serial Number : 2625585716 Max Filenamelength : 255 Filesystemname : Flags : 700ff FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH : TRUE FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES : TRUE FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK: TRUE FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS: TRUE FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION : TRUE FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS : TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES : TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_REMOTE_STORAGE: FALSE FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS: TRUE FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION: TRUE FILE_NAMED_STREAMS : TRUE FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME : FALSE FILE_SEQUENTIAL_WRITE_ONCE : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS : FALSE And this is for one of the Netware network drives which has the problem: $ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/g Device Type: 7 Characteristics: 30 Volume Name: Serial Number : 2887124997 Max Filenamelength : 255 Filesystemname : Flags : 2 FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH : FALSE FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES : TRUE FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK: FALSE FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS: FALSE FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION : FALSE FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_REMOTE_STORAGE: FALSE FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS: FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION: FALSE FILE_NAMED_STREAMS : FALSE FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME : FALSE FILE_SEQUENTIAL_WRITE_ONCE : FALSE FILE_SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS : FALSE I hope this helps.
