[Miller, Raul D]

In the current release of cygwin, I'm still having the problem where
I can't use cp with a network appliance drive.

Below is an illustration of my problem, along with the
information requested in
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00818.html

$ mkdir /tmp/target

$ cp *.html /tmp/target/.
cp: skipping file `file1.html', as it was replaced while being copied
cp: skipping file `file2.html', as it was replaced while being copied
cp: skipping file `file3.html', as it was replaced while being copied

$ ~/src/getvolinfo .
rootdir: \\filervocb\it\
Volume Name        : <it>
Serial Number      : 721521953
Max Filenamelength : 255
Filesystemname     : <NTFS>
Flags:
  FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH  : TRUE
  FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES   : TRUE
  FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK        : TRUE
  FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS        : TRUE
  FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION       : FALSE
  FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS          : FALSE
  FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES  : FALSE
  FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: FALSE
  FILE_SUPPORTS_REMOTE_STORAGE: FALSE
  FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED   : FALSE
  FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS    : FALSE
  FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION    : FALSE
  FILE_NAMED_STREAMS          : TRUE
  FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME       : FALSE

Is there some way (perhaps an environmental variable) to shut off this
feature?  I've never benefited from it, and it causes me quite a bit of
pain.

[p.s. please include me in relevant CCs -- I'm not subscribed.]

Thanks,
