in reply to File::Find Shared Folder Traversal

Please define "shared folders": Windows shares? NFS? Other?

Assuming Windows, see Win32::NetResource. You might also need Net::DNS to get the names from the IP addresses.

    The shared folders can be in both Windows or Linux.

    For Linux which package to use ?

      Please define "shared folders": Windows shares (via Samba?)? NFS? Other?

      If Windows shares via Samba or some equivalent, see Win32::NetResource. You might also need Net::DNS to get the names from the IP addresses.

      If NFS, shares that are already mounted? If so check /etc/fstab.

      If NFS and looking for shares that are not mounted, Net::SSH2 into the sharing box and check /etc/exports or equivalent.

        The shard folders are on a Linux machine(Mandriva) and I am on Windows.

        The folders are accessed using the Samba Server.
