When you say "mkdir", what exactly do you mean?
/usr/bin/mkdir? If so, what does this question have to do with Python?
Python's os.mkdir? If so, which version of Python are you using?
What version of Windows are you running? For what it's worth, I just tried both of the above on my XP/Cygwin system and did not see the shared folder icon in Explorer.
