Getting Information about Directory/Files

It is been a long time since I have coded something really sleek. And now I am forgetting all the code. I am using VB to try to connect to a directory on another server so I can access its data/files. Can any one please let me know which referrence I need to include? Also, it will be great if you can provide a small code snippet of connecting to a directory on a different server (I know UNC path will be used) and getting its data like how many files, folders, size of directory etc. I am using VS 2005.
Thanks
