Question [Perl] Module for recursive listing of remote Windows shares
Hi,

I'm looking for a Perl module which can recursively list remote Windows shares from within a Linux machine.
I've tried Filesys::SmbClient ans Filesys:SmbClientPars but they just list the current directory

Thank You for your help

Hi,

what about mounting the Windows share and searching with File::Find?

I thought of it, but sysadmins do not agree for the moment Smilie

Hmm, always these security-paranoid sysadmin people.

I think it should be not that difficult, to implement recursive list via
Filesys::SmbClient. Nice exercise for writing recursive code.

stomp, sysadmin Smilie
