Just a guess, but the "HP" example you gave above is what a ISO9660 file name would look like. I imagine that the HP isn't really using the Rock Ridge extension. The ISO spec calls for 8 uppercase chars, a dot, a three char extension, a semicolon, and a version number, just what your "HP" file name looks like. Rock Ridge is an extension that allows ISO9660 special System Use Fields to yield equivalent Unix-type directory and file names for a given ISO-type file name. I would bet that the code that generates the ISO names tries to stay as close to the original Unix name as possible, so you get results as above. Nothing in the HP man page for "mount" indicates that Rock Ridge is supported. The mount option "cdfs" may just allow ISO discs. -- Steve Holzworth sch@unx.sas.com "Do not attribute to poor spelling SAS Institute x6872 That which is actually poor typing..."
