Do you have a fully qualified pathname including the prepending '//SERVER'
Where SERVER is your servername.
Hope this helps,

Subject: writing to a text file on win 2000
Has anyone else had trouble doing a basic write/overwrite to a text file on
windows 2000?
I keep getting the "No such file or directory" error message. I even placed
a file with the same name in the directory, just in case it had to be there
first. (But I really shouldn't have to be should it?)
I'm fairly sure the script (in a cgi enviro) runs as the IUSER. I've tried
giving the IUSER write, and even modify, access to the directory, and still
it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
I can't believe it's so difficult getting a perl script to write to a text
file! All my SQL server stuff works like a charm...
Thanks,
Greg
