> I am under NT 3.51 and I am having problems with LFN support.  

1) I don't think NT supports the LFN API for DOS (so far I have only seen
   it work under Windows 95).  I would hope MS is planning to fix this in
   NT soon, but I'm not holding my breath.
2) Did you set LFN=y on the command line (or changed the DJGPP.ENV file)?
   Long File Names are disabled by default, since they cause grief with
   short file name distributions.
