Hi Bug 7401 (PHP4 cannot handle UNC paths) has been changed to a feature request. I think, the fact that UNC paths don't work should at least be mentioned in the PHP4 incompatibilites list - for they used to work in PHP3. For win32-developers thinking about migration to PHP4 this information can be quite important if they work on big systems. Not to be able to work with UNC-paths on win32 means not to being able to work with network shares in a win32-production environment (which can be important,i.e. in a setting, where the web server gets the files from a repository of an external file server). Thank you for listening. Christoph
