Derek gets the cigar (or whatever the prize is if you don't smoke)
The POSIX tools on the resource kit namely rm.exe using it with the -r
parameter and in an instant my problem disappeared
Thanks all for your help...
Typically this list has provided answers while the Windows 2000 file
system Newsgroup was unable to come up with a solution

If you have the nt resource kit you should be able to use the posix
tools (rm, mv, etc.) to deal with these. If you don't have access to the
resource kit mail me off list and I'll see what I can do to help more.
Thanks.

Already tried thanks Tim
Although I believe it would work if the naming restrictions was not
active Assuming it is possible to reg hack it off for the process Cheers

FYI for anyone who is interested
It seems that part of the problem with this ...\com2\uppolo directory is
that the likes of names such as com1 thru to com9 are reserved and not
for use as directory names (something I definitely didn't know)
As yet I cannot remove these directories however I reckon I may be able
to if I can turn off the directory naming restrictions.... Anyone know
how???

That's right Rick
A normal dir gives me a name like com2
A dir /x gives me a blank space and then lists the long filename as com2
But I cannot cd to the directory using the com2 name... Tried basic
CHKDSK and no errors were detailed, although as it a very critical
machine I haven't been able to get a chance to reboot it with CHKDSK
running from startup...hopefully that will happen today

Hi Nick,
So a dir /x of those directories comes up zip?
Sounds like I'd be doing a chkdsk on that volume.

I've been searching everywhere for a solution and so far have turned up
zip (not an archive)
I have three directories which I cannont access on a Win2k server....
The reason I cannot access them seems to be because they have no 8.3
file name, and I cannot use the displayed long file name as it claims it
cant find the file/directory
Does anybody know how to access the file system at this level to correct
it?
