Copy files over WAN?

Hi.

I have an application which is copying files from one location to
another using UNC paths. This is working fine right now using a local
machine but it will soon be moved to a WAN and I am wondering what
type, if any, problems I may have in doing this.

Does anyone have any experience with this and what can I expect or do
to eliminate any potential problems.

Thanks in advance

You will have to take care of security. You may want to impersonate the
asp.net working process as a user with network rights.
