subject: Bye-Bye LFNs?

G'day Jasen!
 
=>1  use a move tool to move the files and subdiirectories one at a time to a
=>   new location and then move them back,  the LFNs will "fall off".
=>
=>2  use the dos defrag tool. but first edit the config file to turn off LFN
=>   support.
 
Two good suggestion, tanks! I 'spose when you say `a move tool' you mean
not the internal `move' command, but to use an older move prog which
doesn't know about LFNs?
 
We've been using version 2.?? of Pkzip to archive the works, delete
everything which is not a Zip, and then unzip, but it's a pain! Bruce
