I'm out of ideas at the moment. Chris somewhere in proc there is a file called something like a mix of Cif Linux Extensions try setting it to zero and then mount with the proper mount options (mode options).

I'm beginning to view this as malicious behaviour on the part of M$, which doesn't have a good reputation for working or playing well with others. I posted a request for help with an intrinsic issue in an alt-os.windows-xp newsgroup and got only bullshit for an answer, so there's no talent available there for anything involving Linux, I'm sure. |
