Writing a file to a different computer on a Windows network.

 [1/4] from: gschwarz::netconnect::com::au at: 27-Feb-2003 12:07


In Network Neighborhood, the address of a folder I would like to write to, has the format of \\computer-name\folder-name The below line does not work, Rebol is still looking in c: write %\\computer-name\folder-name\test.htm temp_read error message Cannot open /C/computer-name/folder-name/test.htm Have tried a few things, no go. :-( Any ideas? Regards, Greg Schwarz.

Gregg, I thought I tried that, must of done a typo and went on a wild goose chase!

It works for me partly. The first time I tried this it did not work. Then when I clicked on the share in Windows Explorer it popped up the password dialog box - to which I entered the correct password. Then when I retried from REBOL it was ok. So I guess you'll have to check what happens after you have rebooted - or it could do with the network setup (I tried accessing a win95 machine).
