Vadivel and jowfawcett,

In my ASP page, I am trying open a "PDF" file which is located on ANOTHER SERVER rather than
on the WEB SERVER.

For example I can use the following line to access a file on the WEB SERVER.
path = server.MapPath("/reports/Test.PDF")

Thank you,




MCinar

So look at the link I posted, you can then create a new virtual directory that points to the netware aserver.

joefawcett,

There are already "Virtual Drives" that point to the Netware Server. When I run a small test page to list available drives, it only shows the local drives on the WEB server (Windows 2000 Server) and it doesn't show the other virtual drives.
But, you can see them on the Windows Explorer.

This is the problem. In ASP, I cannot access the virtual drives.

Thanks for your help,


MCinar

You go into the IIS manager, right click the root of the default web and choose new|virtual directory. Fill in details for share on another computer with the 'connect as' as the gateway user.
