Using Shell to copy files

[xavier.bury at clearstream.com]

Hi

If you are not a domain or authentified user, you can always map to the 
ipc$ of the server you dont 
have access too.

net use \\myserver\ipc$ /user:myserver\userid mypassword

Then the UNC paths shouldn't pose any more problems for any copy program.

I would rather use a shell copy than a vbs. The reporting is better, the 
copy is faster and there's more
options than you can imagine. www.xxcopy.com for example has more 
documentation than rev ;) Just kidding!

cheers
Xavier
