Sergei,
ssh runs under the local System account, so it won't see "user" mounts.
I'm guessing you changed the cygdrive prefix for your login user to
"/mnt". If you want all users to see that as your cygdrive prefix, you
should repeat the "mount -c" command, also giving it the "-s" flag this
time.
Also, ssh pubkey authentication will not be honored by the network servers
(thus you won't see networked drives). Password authentication should not
have that problem.
