Hi!
I can confirm that this listfiles works correctly in Windows XP Sp3 using PACL 6.01

Using driveletters
Code:
Q:\PACL_Test\*.*
Using \\<machine>\<sharename>\
Code:
\\TESTPC\Public\PACL_Test\*.*
When running with a single line filelist that have either driveletter or \\<machine>\<sharename>\ I get a successful result

Code:
Archive: C:\Programs\PACL\PACL6_Filelist1.zip
  preparing to compress...
  adding: PACL_Test\F1\FILE1.TXT   --> Done. [11%]
  adding: PACL_Test\F1\FILE2.TXT   --> Done. [31%]
  adding: PACL_Test\F1\FILE3.TXT   --> Done. [39%]
  adding: PACL_Test\F2\FILE1.TXT   --> Done. [51%]
  adding: PACL_Test\F2\FILE2.TXT   --> Done. [71%]
  adding: PACL_Test\F2\FILE3.TXT   --> Done. [79%]
  adding: PACL_Test\MANUAL.TXT   --> Done. [100%]

All OK
If the listfile has more than one row, it doesn't work. I get the same error with driveletters and with \\<machine>\<sharename>\

Code:
Q:\PACL_Test\*.*
R:\PACL_Test\*.*
Code:
\\TESTPC\Public\PACL_Test\*.*
\\TESTPC\Install\PACL_Test\*.*
Code:
Archive: C:\Programs\PACL\PACL6_Filelist2.zip

Which will be when? So far I've spent money on 6.01 and found it to be unusable.
I think I can help you with this, by creating a script that will give you the same functionality in PACL 6.01 as you have in PACL 4.01. I can't guarantee that it will work, but I'll make some tests to see if it works or not.

This will be a workaround until a update of PACL 6.01 is available.

I'll get back with more info when I have finished the script.

Kind Regards
