Hi,
How can I do the following on Cygwin?:
/sbin/mount.cifs //server/share /mount-point -o user=different-user
In other words, how can I mount a windows share with a specific user ?

You can't. Cygwin is not a kernel module, it's a userspace program, and Cygwin
mounts are bind mounts.
net use \\server\share /user:chosen\user *
Then you can use Cygwin mount to place the shared directory wherever you want.

Thank you, looks like I forgot that Cygwin is on Windows! :)
