C++ FAT32 Access

Rob
Hi,

Does anyone have any idea of any API that exists, or functions that
others have created to find out the start cluster address of any
particular file on a FAT32 formatted disc.
I dont mind using linux to do this, as i presume windows would never
allow low level access to the disc like this.

Thanks
