UNC within the PATH


I've been messing around with a PATH like this:
PATH=....;\\machine\share

I then place bash scripts in \\machine\share\ts1.sh and in c:\ts2.sh

ts1.sh & ts2.sh look like this:
#!/bin/sh
echo "hello world"

Finally I created a file association for the extension .sh so that it
will use c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe.

I then try to run ts1.sh & ts2.sh the following ways from a cmd.exe
window:
1% ts1.sh
\machine\share\ts1.sh: \machine\share\ts1.sh: No such file or directory

2% \\machine\share\ts1.sh
\machine\share\ts1.sh: \machine\share\ts1.sh: No such file or directory

3% c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe \\machine\share\ts1.sh
hello world

4% c:\ts2.sh
hello world

Can anyone shed some light on why 1 & 2 won't work with cygwin's
bash.exe and/or sh.exe?

Note I can get 1 & 2 to work using MKS Software's nutcracker suite.

To kill a process by name, use the killall command. To  kill a
failed fetchmail session on tty1 as an user, log  into another 
console, and issue the command "killall fetchmail". Be careful
with this command as root, since all instances of the  program
used by *all* users will be killed !!!
