Hi, I am trying to set up a cron service to update some directories on a network drive, but I ran into a problem. This copy command works from the command-line: cp -a -u -v //mydrive/myshare/dir1/* //mydrive/myshare/dir2 >> log 2>&1 However, if I run it with cron I get the following error: cp: cannot stat `//mydrive/myshare/dir1/*': No such file or directory Do I need to use a different syntax for the path or am I doing something else wrong? I am running Windows XP Professional version 2002 SP1 and cygwin DLL version 1.5.12. Thanks, Paul __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday! Yahoo!
