Got it.  I'd recommend *not* putting UNC paths in your path.  It will 
slow things down tremendously.  But, to each his own as they say.

Cywgin mounts don't have the same semantics as UNIX mounts.  They are 
primarily mapping DOS paths to POSIX.  They are also persistent.  Surmising
from your path that you expect the '//pcdep06/shared' path to always be 
available, you just need to mount this path once as a "system" path (see
'man mount') and you're done.  So I'd recommend just creating the mount 
point once manually, setting the proper environment variables in the control
panel for the system and let it go at that.  If you need the flexibility
of setting the mount point to one place or another dynamically, you can do
that too.  Just remember to 'umount /mnt/shared' before mounting it.  Also,
if you expect this all to work from 'ssh' or other service, make sure
that the shared location allows access without (Windows) authentication.
