in reply to Trying to move files from Linux to Windows using smbclient

Hmmmm,

How about trying to add use diagnostics; to your script and see if you get more descriptive text for the error. The message you currently get is very generic in nature, not much help.

"No trees were harmed in the creation of this node. However, a rather large number of electrons were somewhat inconvenienced."

Update: In the description on CPAN: SmbClientParser work with output of bin smbclient, so it doesn't work on win platform. (but query of win platform work of course)

Also, there is a Debug option in the module: Debug1 That might help.

Last but not least, look on the ActiveState site for Alian's ToDo: "Write a wrapper for ActiveState release on win32"

Good hunting!
