While, as others suggest, 'subst' might help, your real help here is
two-fold:
1) robocopy - get it from the MSFT resource kits. I can handle
file/path specifications greater than 254 characters, as it uses a
different API than win32
2) shorten the path.

Good afternoon,
I'm trying to copy files from an NT server to a Windows 2003 server.
I am
running into the problem of file/path name limitations. I am trying
to do
this from Windows Explorer, and I keep getting the file name is too
long
error. Is there another utility I can use to accomplish the copy?
Thanks,
