File System = NFTS

Would you know where I can get information that describes details
regarding
how the BizTalk Receive Function operates, ie. what type of connection is
made from the RF to the polling directory, how does the RF know that a
file
arrives in the directory, ect.. ???

Thanks for your assistance!!!

1. I doubt that the SAP Process that writes the file can later re-name
it. I
would probably need a custom re-naming process/program written. I have
no
control over the file naming convention being used within SAP,
everything
written is a unique file name n1.xml, n2.xlm, etc.. I would probably
need
a
file re-naming process that re-names the file-extension, ie. n1.xml to
n1.xxx. Then I would have my Receive Function polling for *.xxx. Right
now I
am polling for *.xml. Having "corporate" help on this fix may be hard to
get - HAHA! But I'll explore this option if I can't get any positive
feedback from Option 2.
Right...

2. The remote server is Windows Server 2000 - SP3. It's a corporate SAP
system that is writing the files to the directory. I am asking them to
review how they write/lock/save the files to see if that is a problem
but
I
have not heard back from them.
What is the file system? NTFS? FAT32?
