Re: FTP to a windows file share?

I just started to read this thread so I'm sorry if this was discussed
and I just missed it. I'm guessing that windows server ukbr1234 has a
shared directory called 'shared' with a sub-directory called test. This
share is physically located on the server, for example, at d:\share\test
on ukbr1234. Correct?

\\ukbr1234\share\test is the location yes......so when it is mapped to
a drive it becomes Y:\test

You need to copy some unix files to \\ukbr1234\share\text. Correct?


yes. Im logged onto the unix server through hummingbird and want the
files to copy to a windows server.

Is ftp installed on the windows server?
not sure

If not, can ftp be installed on this server?
not sure

^^^^^^^^^ the server is a storage server and doesn't allow anyone to
login remotely. You have to be at the machine (which I don't have
access to) so apart from not being able to easily find out - I think
the installing of items would be hard!

If ftp is or can be installed, then you can create an virtual ftp
directory pointing to d:\share\test. The unix server can then ftp to
the windows server just like you ftp to a unix server using Net::FTP.
The windows share \\ukbr1234\share\test will contain the unix files when
accessing from your desktop. Is this what you are looking for?


this is spot on what i am looking for.......
i was orignally looking at mapping to a windows share in perl and then
transfering files across that way thats why i was looking at
