guys/experts:
I just installed full cygwin and I now need to access a folder from 
inside cygwin machine(win7). I did some google search but no good match.
are there any known best practice for that (e.g through SSH)?
the cygwin ssh client works fine but I just dont wanna bother to copy 
DIRs ..

thanks!
regards
ping

Actually it is not off-topic.  From the error message that cgf clipped:

  System.ArgumentException: Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: 'tmp' Key being added: 'tmp'
  <cut>
  at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer..ctor(Type type)

If you read the thread at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-03/msg00375.html , you will see that
the dokan sshfs tool is crashing while apparently attempting to
process the environment variables setup by Cygwin.  The environment
contains both 'tmp' and 'Tmp' environment variables which is OK in a
*nix context but not expected by Windows applications.

Any .NET application running on a stock Cygwin installation that uses
XmlSerializer will get bit by this bear trap.

One solution is to upgrade to base-files-4.1-2.  The other is to write
a wrapper program that cleans up the environment before calling the
dokan sshfs GUI tool.
