is PDPBR a folder name? my assumption says that there are too many subfolders for windows to handle, but thats guessing from the message, since 99% of windows messages are irrelevant, its probably wrong :|

Happened while copying from one server over a hard VPN to another server.

PDPBR is a file name. 361 megs to be exact

I do the exact same thing twice a month. It's gone perfectly fine except that once.

Going from F:\Program Files\IHS\CD\Data to \\odessa-dc\ihs\data, so path length isn't the problem either.


 :blink:


EDIT: Just zipped the lot and transferred the zip via good ol' HTTP and it went fine. :p

Has the box had scandisk/chkdsk and defrag run on it lately? Maybe it's just a really muffed up FAT?

Edit: Or that would work too.

NTFS on Windows 2000 Server.

I'll have to try it at the cmd console next time.
