cygwin fstab odd behavior

[Jeff Avila <gba dot 1066 at gmail dot com>]

Hi there,

Using a combination of Cygwin 1.7.17 and Windows Server 2012. I put a
samba share in the Cygwin /etc/fstab. I can log in as myself, and see
the share/cd to it (I performed the cygwin install, and am a domain
admin on the Windows machine).

my issue arises when other users try to ssh into the Server 2012
machine. Their Cygwin environment shows that the mount exists, but as
a file of eight exabytes in size, and not a directory that you can cd
into.

Here's my fstab:

$ more /etc/fstab
none /cygdrive cygdrive binary,posix=0,user 0 0,exec,noacl
//hudson/sw  /sw nfs nouser,noacl


Here's what an ls of "/" look s like for most users:

rwxr-xr-x+ 1 ???????? user user                        0 Jan 15 20:39 sbin
drwxr-xr-x+ 1 ???????? user user                        0 Jan 15 21:23 srv
-rw-r--r--  1 jrm      user user      9223655985735335684 Apr 22  2009 sw
drwxrwxrwt+ 1 ???????? user user                        0 Apr  2 17:14 tmp

Any idea as to what's going on?

Thanks,
