Hi If u mount a linux file system in Windows (eg with samba AKA cifs) then windows will mess up all permissions, cannot distinguish properly between capital and lower case letters. hello.c and HeLlO.C in Windows is the same file;(. However, there is a workaround: If you can connect with ssh, you can as well connect with the sftp and scp protocol to BB(B). _and_ there are many good and free sftp clients available for windows. Tip: have a look @ winscp, connect with sftp and right click on the file u want to edit, u can even choose your favorite editor...
