Using the passwd -R bit did not change the behavior.  I still am unable to 
access the network share when logging in via SSH, but it works just fine 
when starting cygwin locally.

I will note that the network share (CIFS) uses a different 
username/password than my local user/password on the windows box (That, 
unfortunately, is not under my control).

However, I set up the share using net use \\IP\share /savecreds, and that 
does mount the drive to Windows at least every time without prompting, and 
Cygwin locally is able to use it.  It is only an issue with the SSH 
connection.
