Hi,

How can I using VB.Net create a directory in a remote computer assuming that
i have the privileges.

Im using Directory.CreateDirectory(\\computer\c$\testing
<file://\\computer\c$\testing> )

When the computer is my machine it works when it is another machine it says
that cand find the path.
Am i doing this the right way?

How can i share a directory trough VB.Net?

Thanks in advance.

Filipe -

Did you ever get this figured out? I am haveing the same problem. None of the following work for me:

Directory.CreateDirectory( @"\\server\share" );
Directory.CreateDirectory( @"\\\\server\\share" );
Directory.CreateDirectory( @"\\server\\share" );

Seems like it doesn't really support going across the network. I verified that the destination path has full access for everyone.

Thanks,

Hi,
I seems to work for me. I am using:
Directory.CreateDirectory("\\computername\c$\directoryname")

I am running this on a domain controller on a windows 2003 server network and am logged in as Administrator. I have a feeling that it might not work if you dont have AD running, but thats just a guess.
