File.Copy to fileshare server

[DarthIvan]

I need to copy some files to a server, that I can only access by logging in with different credentials from my own.
I want to be able to do the login stuff programatically .

How do I get File.Copy to use the credentials for the server?

I'm programming the client side, so it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Impersonate.
I need to copy files to multible servers, and multible users should run this client from their local machine.

I have been browsing around for days now, but so far I have not been lucky in my search.

Have you looked at the various GetAccessContro l() and SetAccessContro l() functions of the File object? There might be something there?

I found a way to get access :-)
