if (!system ("xcopy32 c:\*.* d:\ /s /e /v /h /k /r /c")) {
print "worked\n";
} else {
print "failed\n";
}
At least I think xcopy32 returns 0 on success...

Why doesn't xcopy work?
It copies subdirs, empty dirs, etc..
xcopy32 c:\*.* d:\ /s /e /v /h /k /r /c
Adding a /y if you aren't using NT...
Other than that, File::Copy works great for all those types of
situations. It doesn't touch security, but there are perl tools to do
that as well (Win32::Perms). Or just find a copy of scopy (Security
Copy?).

Hi,
does anyone know how to copy the contents of one
mapped drive onto another, including all files and
directories? Xcopy doesn't work.
thanks,
John
