I have a program I need to write that requires me to select a file on a server and write it to my local machine. I have achieved this no problem (Well very few) but my lecturer has asked for a GUI to browse to the server based file. I know JFileChooser works locally, but does it work over a network? And if so how? IS it a case of using a BufferedReader? or is there a "standard" network filechooser I know nothing about?
Thanks in advance.

OK maybe I didn't explain what I mean properly. I am connecting to a remote server (OS "unknown" - I actually know it is Windows (At my end), but it is going 2 b testing on multi OS) so I really need to be able 2 view it "down the socket" as it were. Is that possible?
