Remarks

The NetWare path name is constructed from the components consisting of a volume name, directory path, file name, and file name extension. The full path name is placed in the buffer pointed to by the path parameter.

The maximum size required for each buffer is specified by the manifest constants which are defined in the NWDIR.H file.
