Thanks for the hint. But I see that that's not a problem here.  For one 
thing, as I said, if I ssh into another machine B as the same user, I 
can access \\A\Views just fine.  It's only from A itself that I can't 
access \\A\Views.  (I.e. sort of the opposite of what the above would 
affect).

Of course, I found that if I give Full Control to Everyone, then things 
work, but that's not an optimal solution.  Actually, "work" is also not 
right, since I can then create files and folders from Windows explorer, 
but using Clearcase itself, I get weirdo errors from the "mkview" 
command about "permission denied" when it tries to create files under 
whatever view directory it created.

It seems to be a subtle identity problem of some kind..
