Map nework drive

Luc
Hi,

I want to acces Ã* map network drive and/or a local drive from Ã* web service.
I was wondering if that was a possible thing to do and if so, where would I
find documentation on that subjet.

Hi Luc,

In .NET 2.0 you can use DriverInfo.GetDrives() method to enumerate all
drives on the system. However keep in mind that web services are running
under restricted account and it must have read access to each drive.
