I think I've narrowed down the problem to the terminal emulator. First - I did try modifying xhere to do a "cd $CHERE_DIR" (and then $NETWORK_PATH) but neither variable worked. I then noticed that if I start bash from a cmd.exe emulator (and adjust the path to Include /bin), that I can see (and cd to) a mapped drive. But I cannot "see" (via ls) the mapped drive when using mintty.
