I'm working on an application and I need to determine if a directory
exists or not. I'm using the statements below:
// strTempServerPath = folder path in the form of "\\servername\folder
\"
if (Directory.Exists(strTempServerPath))
{ ... }
It works fine on my local machine but when I deploy to our web server,
it always returns false. I have checked and rechecked a dozen times
to ensure that the directory is there.
>From what I can tell from my searches is that the network account
doesn't have permissions to the folder.
I've tried using WindowsImpersonationContext to try and get around it
with no luck:
System.Security.Principal.WindowsImpersonationContext
impersonatinContext;
WindowsIdentity identity = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
impersonatinContext = identity.Impersonate();
Is there a way to get the application to use the credentials of the
user and not the network account without the user having to provide
password or having to explicitly grant the network account permissions
on the folder?
