Hi,
.NET 2005 - I used System.Diagnostics.Process class to start cmd.exe and map network drive to a server on a different domain as follow:
....
       If System.IO.Directory.Exists(sourceDir) = True Then
            myInput.Write("net use z: /DELETE " & myInput.NewLine)
        End If
        **Is the map directory exist? DELETE it before creating it.
        If System.IO.Directory.Exists("z:") = True Then
            myInput.Write("net use z: /DELETE " & myInput.NewLine)
        End If
        '**Map network drive
        myInput.Write("net use z: \\server password /USER:domain\username /PERSISTENT:YES " & myInput.NewLine)
....
After this mapping, I was able to access file while I am debuging my code locally. However, it was not successful when I public to a website. Website directory security? Any suggestion?

By the way, I noticed a lot of program use WNetAddConnection2. Anyone know how I could retain this?

Thanks

Peter

Just taking a shot but I had a similar issue with old ASP script setting up a document library and new .NET. Look into delegation. If it is telling you access is denied, it is because the account that is being used isn't setup for delegation and the machine you are connected to is not setup to take delegation. I think that is the correct order. I basically said forget it and used Sharepoint for my document library hehe.

Thanks Quick209
If anyone interesting in delegation, here the link: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa291350(VS.71).aspx
I have been dealing mostly with file in the same domain which is easily be done, but on a different domain, I have not get it to work yet.
