How do you do a recursive copy of a directory say on a windows box using
fs-cifs.
got cifs working fine bit if I try to do a
cp -c -r /cifs/tatu_src/* .
the top level directory is copied but then I get
cp: Skipping directory /cifs/tatu_src/Qualification_Sw/Debug_Process
cp: (File resides on different device)
cp: Skipping directory /cifs/tatu_src/Qualification_Sw/Command_Router
cp: (File resides on different device)
cp: Skipping directory /cifs/tatu_src/Qualification_Sw/Background_Monitor
cp: (File resides on different device)
cp: Skipping directory /cifs/tatu_src/Qualification_Sw/CTatuCommonClass
cp: (File resides on different device)
cp: Skipping directory /cifs/tatu_src/Qualification_Sw/TATU_System_Manager
cp: (File resides on different device)
Any clues?

use cp
cp - copy files (POSIX)
cp [options]… source_file target_file
cp [options]… source_file… target_dir
Options:
-a/-b date/time Copy only files dated after/before date/time.
-A Preserve source file access times. Cannot be used with -O.
-B Use a very small (2k) copy buffer.
-c Create any directories neccessary to open dest path.
-d Distribute to multiple dests. e.g. cp -R /hd to /hd1 /hd2
-D Descend past device boundaries.
cp -D -c -r /cifs/tatu_src/* .
I always liked cp -crAP /blah/* /poo/* 8*)
