You need to "net use" the network drive before you can access it through
cron.

I am having a problem running a simple bash script with cron. The
script executes and behaves as expected when run from the command
line, but when run by cron, it fails to execute some commands.
I narrowed the problem down and found out that cron fails to copy
files between drives; for example, the following does not work
* * * * * cp /cygdrive/c/Andrea/try.png /cygdrive/z/try.png
I should mention that the z drive is a network drive. And yes, a
simple script containing that command does execute correctly from the
prompt.
Thanks in advance
