Re: Using a 2000 Box to Access an Include File from 2003

Aside from the missing ')' on your open line, and the fact I believe you should be using || instead of the or, due to operator precedence, your code looks ok. Can you access this file by entering the UNC into explorer or a browser? If you can't access it by any other means, then you're not going to be able to do so with Perl. It seems more likely a permmissions problem then any other.

Yes I can map to it and open it with a browser. But when I try and access it using the cgi it fails. It's almost as if the windows boxes aren't transferring the permissions of the user executing the cgi. Anything on 2003 that I may need to turn on? It has everything shut off by default.	[reply]
