cygwin - novell interaction


Hi,

I'm using cygwin 1.3.12-2 on a Win2000 connected to a Novell
network.

My problem is that if I access a network files rapidly the network
connection breaks down after few seconds (10-20) and remote
server is not accessible (also not for windows tools). The problem
is hard to reproduce (often is everything working fine).

Following script illustrates the problem:

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
      t=`grep foo /cygdrive/n/path/to/network/file`
done

The problem persists also for 'n:/path...' filename form. If I add
a 'sleep 1' command inside the loop or execute script on local
drive everything is ok.

Thanx for any help,
and sorry if the question is off-topic,
Ljubo
