I'm guessing that you're using the DJGPP port of fileutils 4.1. This is a
known bug with the DJGPP port of fileutils 4.0 and 4.1.
This is both your lucky and unlucky day. I ported fileutils 4.0 and 4.1 to
DJGPP. I've recently stopped working on DJGPP and DJGPP packages. So this bug
is unlikely to be fixed. (DJGPP development is quite quiet these days.)
As a work-around, ls will work, once you've mapped the drive. E.g.:
net use z: \\quyenp\c
ls z:
Hope that helps, regards,
