Hello-
I am trying to set up a script that will copy a specific file from a specific folder to a specific folder on another drive. I intend to use this script in an Automator workflow. So far my workflow consists of selecting a remote computer (a) and running an apple script on that machine that mounts a remote shared volume (b). The first part of my workflow works well. The script that I need to copy a nested file from (a) to (b) is causing problems. This is what I have:

tell application "Finder"
duplicate file "Server/Applications/Retrospect 6.0/StorageSets/2009 Daily BUs/2009-Q4" to "Volumes/Workspace/taylore/Desktop/RETRODUMP"
end tell

When I run the script I get the following error:

Finder got an error: Can't set "Volumes/Workspace/taylore/Desktop/RETRODUMP" to file "Server/Applications/Retrospect 6.0/StorageSets/2009 Daily BUs/2009-Q4".

Can anyone tell me what I am missing to make this work?

Thanks,
CAS
