rsh can't access the net work drive

[Eddie Chan]

Thanks for your suggestion.

However, the problem seems to be the permission from rsh. I try the 
commmand on cygwin window without problem...

 > ls //epic/devspace-cm

But if I run the command through remote shell. I got the access problem...

 > rsh deckard 'ls //epic/devspace-cm'
ls: //epic/devspace-cm: No such file or directory

It seems to me that when you run remote shell, you lose some permission 
as you running directly from cygwin window.

Any idea???

Thanks,
EDDIE
