samba - Jun 2003 - Samba 2.2.8a and DOS .bat script

Hi there!

I'm experiencing a problem while executing DOS .bat scripts that have a
directory name whose lenght is greater than 8 characters.

Please see below an example:

usr/mara/COPIA DI FATTUREVIAINTERNET/OK/SFE.BAT

I receive "access denied" error.

If  I execute the same .bat script from another path, which hasn't directory
name longer than 8 characters, it runs without problem.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

Fiorenza

Try putting a backslash in front of all spaces like this:

usr/mara/COPIA\ DI\ FATTUREVIAINTERNET/OK/SFE.BAT
