I'm a little surprised by this behavior from "cygpath" % cygpath -w "//nsk120000650701/share" \\nsk120000650701\share % cygpath -w "//nsk120000650701/share_does_not_exist" cygpath: error converting "//nsk120000650701/share_does_not_exist" - No such host or network path
In the first command, the path in the argument exists, in the second the path does not. I think cygpath should convert the path even if the path/file don't currently exist. Or perhaps there should be an option to get that behavior. My real concern is converting this //nsk1prn02/c304_p to this \\nsk1prn02\c304_p. This is a valid win2k printer path that I could pass to /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/print using the /D: option, but cygpath won't convert it. I did a complete cygwin update moments ago.
