dotnet general : FileSystemObject events not firing on iSeries share

I have an IBM iSeries that lets me use part of its file system via Windows.

I wanted to write a file monitor for files put there from the as400 side.

However, after writing and testing my code with a local DOS directory, I
find that events aren't raised when I do something like copy a file to
the iSeries directory -- even when I copy it from my Windows workstation
to the iSeries.

Does the FileSystemObject support the iSeries filesystem?

Is there another API that does?

Why are you using the FileSystemObject? Isn't that from the pre-.Net days?
What language are you using, and what version of .Net?

Yeah, sorry I meant to say "FileSystemWatcher".

c#, .NET 1.1
