using SPAWN to work with Windows NT network directories [message #25247]

i'm trying to use spawn to create a directory on our Windows network
server.
i can do this locally with the following commands:

IDL> cd, 'c:\temp'
IDL> spawn, 'md mydirname'

will make a directory 'c:\temp\mydirname'. When I try this across the
network
however, eg.,

IDL> cd, '\\Devsrvr\Users\me\'
IDL> spawn, 'md mydirname'

i don't get anything. I can use cd in combination with findfile()
across the network, but i can't get spawn to do anything for me on
devsrvr. Any ideas?
Thanks! Lucas
