either via the registry key
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/tmp]
"native"="c:\\temp"
"flags"=dword:00000000
or by using the mount utility. I think you won't need to install all
the cygwin utilities and you can place mount.exe on the central server and
export it via smb. Than you have to call
mount -b 'c:\temp' /tmp
