Using Network folders in VB.NET

Hi,

I'm using in a VB.NET program a few links to other computers to write or
read from (\\192.168.2.5\Filez\ for example), now I have to go to that
folder first and log in, otherwise, the program says he can't find it.
Can I make that program login with a user/pwd?

Thanks
Joris

Hi,

Try using a ftp class for that. There is one included in vb 2005.
