I have a script that is copying a file from my Windows 2000 Web server to another Info Server twice a day.
The script currently sits on the Windows 2000 Web server where the source file is located and is run off the Task Scheduler twice a day.

I would like to put the script on my Solaris 7 server and use cron to schedule the copy. How can I find the File (myfile) from the Unix server? I know I cant call it what it currently is -> C:\\webServer\\myfile.doc 

#How do I name the absolute path?
my $sourceFile = "C:\\webServer\\myfile.doc";
my $destinationFile = "\\\\myInfoServer\\dirOne\\";

system("copy $sourceFile $destinationFile > nul") == 0 ||  die "File d
+id not copy: $!";
#will change the copy command to cp when I put it on Unix

Please advise.
