ncpfs handling long filenames & lowercase
Hello,
I'm attempting to create mail archives automatically from some mail
inboxes using hypermail in a cron script. This works fine, until it comes
time to make them available on our Novell based web server.
I can ncpmount the files OK (though I don't understand what changes files
from appearing in upper to appearing in lower case)
When I try using hypermail I get errors about not being able to write files -
it doesn't say why. When I create on a local disk using hypermail and then
copying across with cp -R I get errors about not being able to write with the
long file names (I guess this means *.html)
hypermail error -
# hypermail -m /var/spool/mail/rhelp \
-d /mnt/plato/sys/etc/httpd/htdocs/robertk/r/help/98b -l \
"R-help archive July - December 1998" -t "/home/king/R/r_archive_header.html"
hypermail: Couldn't write "/mnt/plato/sys/etc/httpd/htdocs/robertk/r/help/98b/0000.html".
cp error -
cp: cannot create regular file
`/mnt/plato/sys/etc/httpd/htdocs/robertk/r/help/98a/0472.html': File name too
long
Is there an ncpfs list where this question would be more appropriate?
hypermail
version: 1.02
ncpfs version 2.2.0.7
debian version hamm, kernel 2.1.125 (compiled locally)
Thanks,
Robert.
