It sounds like Executor is able to read the directories, but not get
information about the files themselves.  I saw something similiar when
I built 951028.zip, but it went away when I built a complete 1.99p5.
Unfortunately we don't have any machines that are networked in a way
that Windows '95 can see them.

Is anybody else running E/D 1.99p5 and trying to access networked
filesystems?  How goes it?  Same problems as Michael?

We'd really like to get this fixed before 2.0 ships, if possible.
