Did actually. No difference.
The bugger is mounted, that is the strange part:


$ net use
New connections will be remembered.


Status       Local     Remote                    Network

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK           Q:        \\macau\X32 Backup-4(WD)
                                                 Microsoft Windows Network

Just did that. Same difference:

$ ls "//macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)/"
ls: cannot access //macau/X32 Backup-4(WD)/: Input/output error


Is there a set of escape characters for spaces, parens and whatnot?
