\\share\directory and FileSystemObject

[Ed]

Is it possible to use FileSystemObject across two servers? For example, my
web application is on \\Web1 and my files are on \\Files1.

Could my ASP application on \\Web1 use Scripting.FileSystemObject to check
if FileExists() and GetFile().size ?

I'm mapping the \\Files1 as a virtual directory on \\Web1 IIS.

Thanks.

Works for me. The permissions need to be correct for the account the
page is running under of course, which can be problematic if your
servers aren't in a domain.
