Re: Cygwin: mkdir fails on UNC pathnames (FAQ alert)


* Christopher Faylor
| Robert could you add this to the FAQ?  GNU mkdir doesn't understand
| UNC paths.

I deduced from Corinna's message dated 1 Jun 2001 that it would:

    To: Cygwin Users <cygwin at cygwin dot com> 
    Subject: Re: mkdir -p //d/lala/lolo does not work ? 
    From: Corinna Vinschen <cygwin at cygwin dot com> 
    Date: Fri, 1 Jun 2001 15:54:20 +0200 

    --<snip-snip>--
    mkdir /bar/lala/lolo

    Just dont use //d/lala/lolo except `d' is the name of a SMB server.
