Hi,

bash... maybe cygpath, seems to be doing something weird:

$ cygpath -u '\\someuncpath\someshare'
//someuncpath/someshare
$ echo `cygpath -u '\\someuncpath\someshare'`
/cygdrive/c/someuncpath/someshare
$ # what's going on here
$ echo "`cygpath -u '\\someuncpath\someshare'`"
/cygdrive/c/someuncpath/someshare
$ # quoting doesn't help either
$ type -a echo
echo is a shell builtin
echo is /usr/bin/echo
echo is /bin/echo

I've attached a cygcheck.out.

Regards,
Shaddy
