Re: can get 'net use' to give remote share a drive letter when logged in directly but not from ssh session

Yeah, it sounds like you're looking at a different problem than the one I was referring to. That problem did not exist in 1.5.X as far as I'm aware. Sorry for the false lead. Eric - Original Message > From: JJ Ottusch > To: cygwin@cygwin.com > Sent: Sun, April 25, 2010 7:13:14 PM >
