i.e. $ mount -m >mounts.bat # on the dev. machine # Assuming mount.exe and mounts.bat from cygwin in PATH C:\> mounts.bat # on the user machine May be a good idea to - minimize mounts.bat - NOT use "-s" mount flag. (-s == for all users, privilege problems unless running as admin) - adjust mounts.bat for drive letters on the user machine. (hmm... is there a "sed" for MSDOS? Installation problem.) /Hannu E K Nevalainen, B.Sc.
