Arrgh...I am sorry for not being clear. The script is running under the context of my username. I know that I do not have permissions on certain directories. However, I would like to know how to detect it in Perl.
perl -e "print(-d 'z:/xxx');" prints a 1, even though z:/xxx directory cannot be accessed because of NTFS permissions. I was wondering if there would be some "-X" operator that would return a zero OR undef for such directories. How about this? A readdir() function on such directories should return a "undef" and can that be taken as a symbol of "not enough access permissions?" -- Rex -----Original Message----- From: McCollum, Frank [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 4:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: File::Find on Win32 -- Directory Permissions Denied I was using server loosely. The machine it is running from has to be logged on as something, right, (like our servers would have a logon similar to "productionMachine" or whatever). The first step I would take is to check this, it shouldn't require a work around.
