example contents of monday.sh (755):

rm -rf /cygdrive/M/ # M is a persistent, network mapped drive
cp -Rv /cygdrive/D/IBM /cygdrive/M/
cp -Rv /cygdrive/D/ar /cygdrive/M/

When I login the next morning, there is nothing in M:\

However, if I run these scripts manually, they work just fine.

Any ideas?

Did you look at the FAQ?
