Hi,
I am having trouble using GetUNCName() from Win32::NetResource module. I have directory called

"D:\WIPData"

, and

"T:\temp"

shared on my local machine. I am trying to get the UNC names for them in the format

\\machine_name\share_name

using GetUNCName, and it is barfing for some weird reason. Please let me know if I am using this subroutine the right way, or if there is another way using perl, or some windows system command which might get me the same information.

my @oth_paths = ("T:\\temp", "D:\\WIPdata"); map { my $outpath; print "in_UNC : $_ \n"; Win32::NetResource::GetUNCName ( $outpath , "$_"); print "out_UNC : $outpath \n"; } (@oth_paths);


Thanks
