    [2005] Copy files from one computer to another

    I have a need to copy files from computer a to a target directory on computer b. Is there a way to do this directly, or is there a recommened (best practices) way of doing this? I'm using VS2005 so it's the 2.0 framework, I don't have any requirements to use certain types of protocols, etc. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks

    Copying files is the same regardless of there location. You simply specify the paths and away it goes.

    To copy files from 1 computer to another, the current user must have full access to the folder in the other computer. You need to share that target folder and give the account that your application will be running under full access to it.
