I am Stuck,.... Hello All:
I seem to have a strange problem. I am trying to see if a directory on the
Network exist or not. I know it does exist and I know It is shared. I can
see it going from "My Network Places". But When I write the following code
It fails (It returns false) Here is the code:
'Itlaptop is the name of the machine on the network that I
am trying to access
'Tandem is the name of the shared folder
Dim source As DirectoryInfo = New
DirectoryInfo("\\Itlaptop\Tandem")
If source.Exists() Then
outError.Text = "Itlaptop\Tandem exists on the server."
End If
I Also tried the other object "Directory" it failed too.
Here is the code for Directory. About the same.
If Directory.Exists("\\Itlaptop\Tandem") Then
outError.Text = "Itlaptop\Tandem exists on the server."
End If
Please help me. If you rather email me privately, please do so. Thanks very
much in advance.
Note: If I use FileSystemObject (Scripting Object) I don't have this
problem. nice old days..::))

I found a new thing...:) The code works in Windows Form but it does not
work
on Web Forms
Just to remind you the code,.... Yes, I Imported System.IO Namespace on
both
places...
Private Sub btnFolderExist_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e
As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFolderExist.Click
If Directory.Exists("\\Itlaptop\Tandem") Then
Label1.Text =3D "Exists!!!, Hahahah!!!"
'MessageBox.Show("Exists!")
Else
Label1.Text =3D "net share not found!"
'MessageBox.Show("net share not found!")
End If
On Windows Form, it returns "Exists!!!, Hahahah!!!"
On Web Forms, it returns "net share not found!"
I don't know what the problem is... Please help!
Thanks very much for your time..

Okkkk two things :
a. MessageBox.show in my experience wont work on a web page, rather use
JavaScript alert for this or the alternative vbscript .
b. That net share not found , is not really the right error cause what its
actually telling you (this is if you are 100% sure that the network path
exists) the MACHINENAME\ASPNET account that is used to run the aspnet
process for that web page does not have permissions on the network share
because it's a local account.
Here are two solutions that have helped me,
Either a: in your web.config set impersonation = true , then the user(s)
that are accessing the web page need to have permissions on the share, the
best that has worked for me BUT THIS IS NOT SECURE is to enable EVERYONE to
have permissions but then again this is in a intranet environment. Or b. use
code (search MSDN for Impersonation) to use impersonation with in your code
to specify a user to run that specific code, that user then can be given the
permissions on the network share for access.

Carlos Magalhaes
