I am working on a set of file and directory utilities to be incorporated into a file requester. In order to cache multiple directories I need to be able to associate logical and physical devices. For instance, if SYS: is assigned to DF0:, I need to be able to recognize this, so that I can avoid the possiblity of caching SYS: and DF0: as seperate entities. One possible solution I can see is to find the root of each logical device, then compare it against all others for path matches, and then play with getting locks when matching paths are found. Seems a like there should be an easier way... Thanks in advance for any help. Sorry if I'm missing the obvious:^). Wade.
