I do not see that problem as long as 'I' (read user) have permission. You can always use the CACLS Windows system command to change permissions, but there is usually a good reason not to. Is the perl script running on a server? Does the server have permission to be in the folder?
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 4:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: File::Find on Win32 -- Directory Permissions Denied I am trying to use File::Find module on Win NT 4.0 with Activestate Perl to find the directory sizes on a network share drive. If the individual directories are protected by Windows NTFS permissions, the File::Find module throws a warning message on STDOUT saying "Can't opendir(Z:/blahblah): Invalid Argument". I have two questions here. a) I am using formats and would like to output this information to a format handle rather than the default STDOUT. IS there a way to do it via File::Find? b) How would I detect those directories which cannot be opened in a Win32 OS? (-r, -R etc did not work for me). Am I missing an obvious thing, here?
