[QUOTE="hwahrmann, post: 135258, member: 10391"] Update: It should work on Network drives if the Network OS is from Microsoft. some sort of Win2k server or a networked Windows XP. if the network drives are on a Samba server, it won't work. well, at least it won't work the way i designed the stuff currently. Samba doesn't fire an event for a single file modified. it fires an event and tells that in a directory something has changed. Not telling what has changed. So i could have following scenario: 1. A file got added 2. A file got updated 3. A file got deleted by scanning the directory and comparing the File dates, i can identify a file that has been added and a file that has been updated. But i can't detect files, which have been deleted automatically. i maybe need to compare the directory content with the information i have in the db. if there's a file in the database and not in the directory, it has been removed. ok, so far for the theoretical part. i need to verify, if that is really true. thread will be updated, once i know more [/QUOTE]
