The below script works great on my local workstation when I say:
my $mydir = "C:/Perl/bin/newr";
It gets the File name and file size with output such as:
myfilename is 273

But when I try and fetch file name and file size off Infoserver it only gives me file name and does NOT give me file size. It just prints a blank in my output for file size:
myfilename is

Please advise how I can do this? I can get a filename from the remote info server but can not get the file size.
use strict; my $mydir = "//Infoserver/directory"; opendir(DIR, $mydir) || die "Can not open directory $mydir: $!\n"; while (my $file = readdir(DIR)) { if ($file !~ /^\.+$/ && -M $mydir . '/' . $file > 1) { my $size = ((stat($file)) [7]); next if ((-z $file) || ($size < 100)); print "$file is $size\n"; last; #only give me one } } closedir(DIR);
Inforserver is NT and my workstation is NT.
