RE: Accessing network shares under sshd

To determine whether the problem is specific to sshd, use the "at" command
(with the interactive option) to start bash in the service account something
like two minutes in the future, and see whether your drives are accessible.

Can't you issue "net use" commands from your login config file? (tighten
NTFS permissions on it, of course, because the passwords would be stored in
plaintext)

Subject: Accessing network shares under sshd

        I asked this once before but didnt' get much of a response, so
        I'm trying again.

        I am runnign cygwin + sshd under Windows XP and am unable to
        access network drives I have mapped using the Windows Explorer
        "Map Network Drive" when logged in to my machine remotely via
        ssh. They don't show up in the "mount" output when I login
        via ssh, but they do when I start a bash shell from my XP
        desktop.

        Does this have something to do with using the "Local System"
        account for running sshd, or is it perhaps some other Windows
        security poolicy which I am bumping up against? I am
        currently logged in on my desktop, so perhaps this is also
        something which is a contributing factor?
