Have you tried the correct way? ls /cygdrive/q

Did actually. No difference. The bugger is mounted, that is the strange part:


$ net use New connections will be remembered.


Status Local Remote Network

OK           Q:        \\macau\X32 Backup-4(WD)
                                                Microsoft Windows Network


or the alternative Network share way? ls "//macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)"

Just did that. Same difference:


$ ls "//macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)/"
ls: cannot access //macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)/: Input/output error


Is there a set of escape characters for spaces, parens and whatnot?
