Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am writing to ask if you would please let me know if its possible to
deploy Cygwin/XFree86 on an MS-Windows shared drive ? (exported by SMB
through the Windows share facility).
If so please would you help with instructions on how to do it ?
I like the Cygwin/XFree project very much. It's simply wonderful to have
all of the familiar tools, especially a useful Window manager and
shells.
Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely.
