Hi, Im mooperd on irc. After lots of swearing and learning I think I am getting the hang of it. Today, I created 10000 files and squirted them into UFO. for file in $(ls); do curl -X PUT -T $file -H 'X-Auth-Token: AUTH_tk289d8ebe3ff44c97a9721970a4251f02' https://cheese25:443/v1/AUTH_gv0/new_container/ -k; done It works perfectly until you get to about 3500 files....then. </body> </html><html> <head> <title>201 Created</title> </head> <body> <h1>201 Created</h1> <br /><br /> </body> </html><html> <head> <title>201 Created</title> </head> <body> <h1>201 Created</h1> <br /><br /> </body> </html><html> <head> <title>404 Not Found</title> </head> <body> <h1>404 Not Found</h1> The resource could not be found.<br /><br /> This seems to be a hard limit for the number of files in a dir. Any ideas? Thanks, Andrew
