Maybe I should have rephrased that question.
Yes, I know you can \\pcname\c$ get into a pc through the administrative
share, or create a shared, but I'm not looking for that.
I meant if you had a file on a remote PC that you wanted to copy onto the
PC your currently on, could you do it, via a TCP/IP socket connection?
Of course you can. How do you think files get downloaded by your web
browser or other program?
Still, this question has nothing to do with C#. It's a general procedural
question, and while it should be obvious that what you want to do is
*possible*, you are a long way from having a real understanding of *how* to
do it (which presumably would be your next question). I readily admit, few
people adhere to restricting this newsgroup only to questions about the C#
language, but I would agree that asking about downloading a file over TCP/IP
is a bit far afield from the usual discussion here.
In other words, you may have better luck asking your question elsewhere, in
a newsgroup more specifically related to the use of sockets, TCP/IP and/or
file transfers.
