cannot see contents of mounted drive

Wed Jul 5 10:32:00 GMT 2000

I just installed cygwin yesterday and I am having trouble seeing files
on my z: drive. Basically my unix home directory is mounted from a
netapp server as z: on my NT box (the file system is a FAT type). When
I go to ~/ and do a pwd I get /cygdrive/z/, which is what I
expect. When I then do a "ls" I don't see anything. If I do something
like "less .bashrc" (for example) I do get what I expect. So for some
reason when files are explicitly referred to they are seen, but when I
do an ls I can't see anything. I tried "mount"ing z: explicitly, but
that didn't solve the problem. What am I missing? When I used cmdproxy
all by itself and do a "dir" on z:, everything is fine. Similarly,
opening files from within emacs on z: works as expected. I did notice
one weird thing. When I am in bash "whoami" returns "ps". When I do a
"whoami" in cmdproxy (started by itself, not as a process under bash)
I get GOLD\ps. Now, when I am in bash and start cmdproxy from there
and then try to do a "dir" I get "permission denied". Doing "whoami"
shows me as "ps" not as "GOLD\ps". I am not sure why this would matter
as my unix permissions on that file system are set to
755. Nevertheless it is kind of weird.
I looked through the FAQ and did a search on the mailing list
archives, but I could not find anything.
Any help you can provide is much appreciated.
Thank you
Peter
