Maybe your seach was blank because you are trying to access a "widow's" machine?? (Sorry - could not resist)
What are you trying to access? The file system?
Smaug.
<update....>
Short of information I'm assuming you want to access a file share on a Windows machine, from another Windows machine. If that is the case, standard UNC paths should work.
Try:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $sharename="//servername/directory/";
<update 2...>
I think that
Win32::NetResource might help you, but I can't get it installed to check. I'll post something if I get an answer to
CPAN Module Compile Error
Good luck!
<Final update...>
Ok, so the Win32 module will not install on Linux (duh!!). Luckily
digger has supplied the code you need.
