In the current release of cygwin, I'm still having the problem where
I can't use cp with a network appliance drive.
Below is an illustration of my problem, along with the
information requested in
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00818.html
$ mkdir /tmp/target
$ cp *.html /tmp/target/.
cp: skipping file `file1.html', as it was replaced while being copied
cp: skipping file `file2.html', as it was replaced while being copied
cp: skipping file `file3.html', as it was replaced while being copied
$ ~/src/getvolinfo .
rootdir: \\filervocb\it\
Volume Name : <it>
Serial Number : 721521953
Max Filenamelength : 255
Filesystemname : <NTFS>
Flags:
 FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH : TRUE
 FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES : TRUE
 FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK : TRUE
 FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS : TRUE
 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 : TRUE
 FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME : FALSE
Is there some way (perhaps an environmental variable) to shut off this
feature? I've never benefited from it, and it causes me quite a bit of
pain.
[p.s. please include me in relevant CCs -- I'm not subscribed.]
Thanks,
