Could PC1 (client) run an ASP scrpt on PC2 (web server) to read a dir on PC3 (network

This is my scenario...

I'm trying to use PC1 (my client PC on the network) to run an ASP file on PC2 (web server on the network) to read a directory on PC3 (a network fileserver).

I wrote a nice looking filebrowser but I can only get PC1 to access the file contents of PC2. I haven't been able to use the FileSystemObject to access the directory structure of a network PC.

Also, FileSystemObject doesn't seem to like UNC's (universal naming convention), we access the file server through a UNC (example: \\pc-az-20).

Is it possible to use FileSystemObject in this way? Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated.

The reason this needs to be done is Netscape is our official company browser (blech) and people need to use Netscape to browse directories like IE can. Well Netscape wasn't designed to work like windows explorer so if you try to browse to a file in a directory that has a space in the file name it won't access that file.

I need an ASP solution to build directory listings at run time and make valid links to the files to the Netscape users can browse the file structure.

Thanks!

Try mapping that path to a drive on the server.
