dotnet myservices: Hi
I am working on Creating a Window service in VB .Net.
The service is supposed to read the files in a folder on a Network Drive but it does not do anything.
On the Other hand when the same service is used for a Folder on the Local Drive it works perfectly fine.
Any Suggestions will be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

I'm having quite the same problem as the OP. You suggested to run the
service as "NetworkService". But this account exists since WinXP only.
My app needs to run under NT4 and 2k as well.

My service needs to check certain files similar to what a Virusscanner
does. Now if the taskplanner or a GPO starts a process on a remote share
by using certain user credentials, I would like my service to access
that share, too, and get some informations about those files. Any
suggestions on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
T.
