Guess you are talking about org.apache.avalon.excalibur.io.FileUtil (as we are speaking about resolveFile ...) - seems as if Ant has a less Unix centric approach than Excalibur here, but maybe this has been taken care of outside of this class, don't know. Same is true for UNC filenames on Unix (samba shares). Anyway, there is so much common stuff here and there and probably at least once in Tomcat and ... that it seems to be asking for a commons package. Stefan
