All -
thanks for the replies. The java method was the most interesting,
but I couldn't get it to work consistently - some directories
it would work on, but others it would claim that the directory
didn't exist. I tried a few things, but could never get it to
be reliable, so I punted on that. Nice to know about it, though !
For the record, I will probably end up using a VB script from
Windows to accomplish what I need to do, since in our environment
the Windows client can get to everything I need to get to, and
I there are several that are on Gb networking, so the sizing
will be faster.
Thanks,
John
