How to install on common drive?


Title: How to install on common drive?

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this question.

I'm thinking of installing cygwin on a common drive so that my department has single-point, common access.  (Just to be a little over-explanatory here, my definition of a common drive is a vob in ClearCase.  On NT, when a vob is mounted, it looks and acts like a separate hard drive.)

What caveats am I going to experience?
  - is there any registry entries other then mount points?
  - other than modification of path, is there any other
    environment considerations?
  - I'm assuming because of GPL licensing, I won't get
    into legal problems by adding cygwin to a repository.
    (I do know of some products that do not allow you to
    add them to a multi-site repository, so I'm just
    checking.)
  - any other considerations that I can't think of right now?

Thanks all for your help.
