RE: Problems with VSS

Here's the command and its result after adding a trailing \.  I've tried
variations on forward and back slashes to no effect.

09:35:19:705 [Thread - AnthillBuildDaemon] INFO
com.urbancode.anthill.adapter.ProfileRepositoryAdapter  -

'-I-Y'
'-O-'

The ' characters around the executable and arguments are
not part of the command.

WorkingDir: none

Invalid DOS path: \\sourcesafe\vss\ \srcsafe.ini

Nate, try adding a trailing \ to the SSDIR path.
