Hi,
assuming you are in a winows world with a NAS running samba: yes it does
copy it locally and then back to the server. at least it does here with
win xp. The only thing which can be done on the server completely is
moving stuff (try moving big files in explorer from one NAS location to
another NAS location. Have not tried in Python though....)
Cheers
Sebastian

Hi
I'm using shutil to copy some files across from a network drive to
another location on the same drive with a new name.
This is being run from a users machine.
The question is, does the copy function involve copying the file into
the user's machine's memory and then back on to the network, or does
it do this all on the network drive.
If its is going via the user's machine, is there a way to only do this
via the network. It's a NAS mounted drive.
Probably a dumb question if you're a admin guy but I'm not so hence
the dumb question ;)
