distributed file system.
there's some stuff here about scripts with file and dfs:
it seems to be you have to use wmi when dealing with dfs.this must mean u can treat dfs links the same as shares.

Questions :
1) Have you an error or does it just don't create your folder without telling you why ?
2) if you try to call a getFolder method on the DFS, does it work ?
3) As you're talking about WMI, did you think of using the "Win32_CreateFolderAction" method in WMI ? Water is not bad as long as it stays out human body ;-)

Thanks for all of the quick replies, here is my current code "in an ASP page" running on W2K. The script DOES work as .vbs but not as an ASP page. Again the link is a DFS(Distributed File Sytem) share.
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
set f = fso.CreateFolder("\\Domain-01\dfs$\" & OU & "\users\" & SamName)
fso.CopyFolder "\\Domain-01\dfs$\\" & OU & "\users\userdef\*", "\\Domain-01\dfs$\" & OU & "\users\" & SamName
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
set f = fso.CreateFolder("\\Domain-01\dfs$\" & OU & "\users\" & SamName)
fso.CopyFolder "\\Domain-01\dfs$\\" & OU & "\users\userdef\*", "\\Domain-01\dfs$\" & OU & "\users\" & SamName
You're gonna think I take you for a stupid guy but that's not the case. I ask my question :
In ASP, did you change the code
to
server.
?

Great pickup Targol. I did not have the "server." part of the command. When I change it I was able to create the folder. Why would the code have worked for a standard share and not a DFS link without the "server."?
Having the code work without the "server." had me stumped.
Thanks for all the help.
