Programs fail to recognize paths.

[Michael Labhard]

While trying to use cvs on cygwin (Windows XP) the command "cvs -d 
/usr/local/cvs-repository update" returns the error "directory 
/usr/local/cvs-repostory does not exist". Â "ls" has no problem finding the 
directory and it is possible to cd to the directory. Â Thought this might be 
due to installing the cvs binary so downloaded and build/installed cvs from 
souce in cygwin. Â No improvement.

While using gvim (started from a cygwin command prompt) if there is a Windows 
directory c:\cygwin\usr\wx2 that has been mounted as /usr/wx2, gvim can see 
the directory but cannot see the files in it or subdirectories of it. 
 If one first cd's to the /usr/wx2 then gvim can see all files in the 
directory.

Any help understanding and correcting these problems would be greatly 
appreciated. Â Thank you.
