Cheers - so what I saw was what you expected, but not what I expected. I had a requirement to copy the serverpac /etc to a new HFS and merge a current /etc over the top with noreplace. Expecting to get a merged /newsys, I wound up with /newsys/etc and /newsys/service. As it had to be a deployable batch procedure, I gave up and went with a script that changes to each of the source directories in turn. Thanks ...
