I have mine setup like this: Try this: (Just change your property values to yours...)
<property name="vss.login" value="${user.name}" /> <property name="vss.dir" value="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\VSS\win32" /> <property name="vss.get.autoresponse" value="N" /> <property name="vss.quiet" value="false" /> <property name="vss.serverPath.ini" value="\\gshqfs01\Public\Applications\SourceSafe\vss" /> <property name="src.dir" value="C:\WebProgs\Java\JSpecSearch\src" /> <property name="vss.JSpecSearch.dir" value="/Java/com" /> <vssget login="${vss.login}" autoresponse="${vss.get.autoresponse}" quiet="${vss.quiet}" recursive="true" localpath="${src.dir}\com" serverpath="${vss.serverPath.ini}" ssdir="${vss.dir}" vsspath="${vss.JSpecSearch.dir}" /> Hope this helps! PS: vss.login is the java user.name property that Java gets from the OS, and that's out NT ID, that is the same as our VSS Id.

Since I am accessing a source safe database located on a server, I have specified the network path to the folder on the server (see vss.server above) I guess the question is "Is the server path specification in the correct format for ANT to decipher?"
