IDE :: Checking For Network Share In VB
Apr 30, 2009I'm writing a console app to take care of our automated user creation process which was previously done by a batch file. I need to check if a users network share exist on any of 38 servers but seem to be having trouble finding info on how to do it. From what i can tell i need to use the netapi32.dll and the NetShareCheck function, but i'm not sure how to do it.
this is what i have so far, but it isn't working as it should. it seems to be returning 2311 in almost all cases exept if i use uppercase on the server and device and the device starts with C.
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class NetApiWin32

View 2 RepliesMS Access Slow In Network Share
Dec 26, 2011I have a .NET application (VB.NET) that runs against a MS Access database. Every data request connects to the access database, runs and returns the query and closes the connection back again. I placed the database on a windows xp 32-bit machine. I have two clients on which I installed the .NET application. Both clients are running windows 7 professional 32-bit. Now I have a performance problem with this.
When I use the first client it runs fine. All data is shown very fast. When I than use the second client, it takes some 10 seconds to connect to the database, fetch the data and close the database connection. When i ask for other data on that second client, it all runs fine, until I request data from the first client than back again. Than it takes again 10 seconds on the first client before my data is fetched.
Intercept File Access On A Network Share In .NET?
Feb 24, 2010I am looking for a way to possibly intercept the point that a file is being accessed on a network share.

Feb 15, 2012Any simple way of automatically updating a newer version of my application from a network share. Everything I have read pertains to an update from a web site. This is possibly a simple thing to do but as I have 6-8 users using the application I have to email them all stating there is a new version on the share and for them to copy and overwrite the existing application executable in the program filesapp directory. If this could be done on launching the program within the splash screen that would be fantastic.

I currently have

View 4 RepliesRead Files From Windows Network Share
Sep 25, 2009I have a program where I need to be able to access files from an administrative share on a remote machine where the username is administrator and there is no password. I want to be able to access these files without the user getting prompted to input the username and password.
I have searched around and found some references to WMI - but as far as I can tell, WMI is mainly for managing the remote machine and not necessarily for file access (?). Also, some information gathered about WMI leads me to believe that it may be disabled on some machines or not installed on others (?). Since this program is meant to go out to a diverse customer base, I need to make sure that I cover as many angles as possible to ensure this program will run on as many machines as possible.

View 1 RepliesVS 2010 SQL Server Compact On A Network Share?
Oct 26, 2011Greetings, I'm a little bit confused about SQL Server Compact behavior.I have a small app that uses a small sdf file located on a network share.The problem is that while the app itself is working perfectly well using the connection string that points the location of the sdf file on a network drive, when I try to open the same sdf using the Server Explorer I get this error:
SQL Server Compact does not support opening database files on a network share.Obviously, if the app IS working it does indeed support network shares, then why Server Explorer cannot open it?
I copied the database file to a local drive but it's not very convenient. What might be the problem?

.net - User Generated Hyperlinks To Files Hosted On A Network Share?
Oct 26, 2009My ultimate goal is to allow users to select a file from a dialog as if they are uploading a file. Instead of file being saved to the server, a hyperlink will be generated from the file's path.This hyperlink will then be used on our intranet page in order to open the file located on our network share.Is there any practical way to accomplish this?I have tried both an HTML file type insert and .Net's FileUpload Control but neither will work since for security reasons the full path of the file is never accessible.

View 1 RepliesGet Windows To Open The Credentials Dialog - Network Folder Security
Jun 2, 2009I have a treeview control which is being used to browse various folder on the users system drive. It can also be set up to connect network folders using UNC paths e.g "serverfiles". At the moment I'm getting a list of Directories by using My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDirectories however this obviously fails when the folder is password protected.
Is there a way that I can get Windows to open the credentials dialog as you would see in Windows Explorer and deal with the credentials side so then the user name & password is cached as well?
VS 2008 Copy File To Network Share With Username/pass Passed In The Code
Aug 4, 2010I've been looking at accessing shared folders, read and write, via the network without being prompted by the OS for the username and password.

What I'm basically looking for is to not have to map a drive on the users computer. Then using code, write or read files from a network share and at the same time pass the username / password required for that network share.
2003 - Program Running Under Alternate Credentials - Option To Open A UNC Path To A Network Share
Sep 8, 2010I have a program written in VB.net 2003 that are folks run under alternate credentials. Inside the app there is an option to open a UNC path to a network share. We were running Windows XP SP3 and IE6. The code is simple just a call to the explorer.exe with /root,\UNCPath. After installing IE 8 onto the machine this no longer works. Best I can tell the code is still working but now being executed in non interactive mode so nothing opens up. You can however see a new spawned explorer.exe running under the system account for each attempt at opening a UNC Path. Any ideas what IE8 could have done to cause this behavior?
