AW: cd slows down on local drive when another network drive gets connected


Hi Larry,

thanks for having responded.

Sorry, I am not experienced enough to answer your question.
I didn't know, that I need a driver to connect to a network drive.
All I do is to open the windows explorer and connect drive Q: to a 
//server/path using the Windows explorer's menu.

It seems to me, that Cygwin does implicit somehow check the state
of all drives or something like that, every time the working dir changes.

So what can I do? Do you need some log or diagnostic output (how?).

Not only cd, but all xterm opning extremely slow down, as soon as a network
drive gets connected. This is really annoying. 

Paul
