No. Unix is even more tolerantt of strange characters than Windows: the
latter needs you to put the entire filename in quotes if it is to believe

My guess is that your CD server software is playing strange games. If you
try
copying the entire CD contents to a local drive and then running your Perl
script
I am sure it will be OK. It may well be that the CD server can be configured
differently to prevent your problem. You're not working over Samba are you?
HTH,
