    I'm using cygwin to dually process data with Mac/unix and some windows binaries. It is working fine, but much of our data is not on the c:/ drive, but on a mac volume that shows up in parallels/XP as the .psf voumes labeled Z:

    This is fine for windows stuff, but I need the windows path to map this to a new virtual volume in cygwin. I tried mount "Z:" "/cygwin/z" to no avail. I'd be happier if there was a path to where the windows volume is actually mounted, like /volumes/mydrive/ on the host machine. There is no info in the properties tab.

    Ideas??

    Thanks

    Try " net use 'z:' '\\.PSF\sharedfolder' " in cygwin, replacing sharedfolder with the name that you have given your shared folder.

    Couldn't wait. Tried it through Timbuktu and it works perfectly. Thanks!
