well i think i will close this out. redid recursive foldering now for
3rd or 4th time. below script works from a windows to another folder
(destination1) or a unc path(destination2). i tried it on my linux
box, and the error deals with writing to a remote smb share. i think
if it was mounted somewhere, it would work fine with something like
dest1, but changing the path(or mounting the remote drive to backup2
for the lazy ).
