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.

Hi Greg,

This format works for me:
read %/computer-name/share-name/dir/file.txt

Gregg,

Regards,
Greg

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).

Brett.
