It's not (just) environmental. `>dir /b \\tribble05\c$\* AUTOEXEC.BAT ... >perl -le"print for glob shift" \\tribble05\c$\* >perl -le"print for glob shift" c:\* c:\AUTOEXEC.BAT ... >perl -le"opendir $dh, shift; print for readdir $dh" \\tribble05\c$ AUTOEXEC.BAT ...` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I don't think it's blocked. I can do a `dir \\machine_name\junk` from a command window and see the directory.	[reply] [d/l]
