Quoting "Jeremy Bopp" <jeremy@bopp.net>:Might you be able to do something like:
It sounds like your Samba configuration requires authentication in order to access this share. Are you able to access the share as \\server\share using the Windows file explorer without first mapping the share to a drive or authenticating in some other way? Cygwin uses Windows to handle this sort of operation, so if Windows can't access the share without authentication, neither can Cygwin.
If authentication is required, you'll either need to map the share to a drive letter or reconfigure your Samba share to allow guests to have read and possibly write access depending on your needs.
Thank you - this has pointed me in the right direction...
The main problem I've got now is how to allow write access to the share from this scenario without allowing it from outside... but I am working on that.
