Mapped network drives from bash on Windows 10

1

How can I access mapped network drives while using bash on Windows 10. I can access the local drives via /mnt but not the network mapped drives.

Most of the available solutions suggest cygwin which i have been using on Windows 8 - was wondering if there is anyway bash shell on win 10 could do it as well. I already have the drives mapped and can access via explorer.

what is the output of ls /cygdrive ? – matzeri – 2017-08-16T02:45:58.313

cygwin shows everything including the mapped network drives under /cygdrive – Senthil Ramanathan – 2017-08-17T01:41:36.217

so why you don't access though /cygdrive/<you drive letter> that is the canonical way ? – matzeri – 2017-08-19T04:04:00.267

Once you are inside bash in command prompt, the /cygdrive is not available for access. cygdrive is available only inside the Cygwin terminal. – Senthil Ramanathan – 2017-08-21T03:42:01.400

not true. Bash environment does not depend from which terminal is run. Or you are running a different user or something else is different – matzeri – 2017-08-21T04:52:10.337
