Colin:

I stay away from domains as much as possible; it wrecks havoc on all kinds
of software.  The two machines (an IIS web server and a UniData dbms server)
are on the same "workgroup", have the exact same administrator name and
password (when I remote desktop in).

"WebDev" is both the share name and the actual name of a directory in "E:"
of the IIS Web server.  When I open a DOS window on the UD server I can list
the remote directory by using either path syntax:

C:\Documents and Settings\myuser>dir \\asiolywaweb\webdev   (or dir
\\asiolywaweb\e$\webdev)
 Volume in drive \\asiolywaweb\webdev is Web
 Volume Serial Number is A4D8-DA0E

 Directory of \\asiolywaweb\webdev

03/04/2007  02:21 AM    <DIR>          .

I modified the "DTAWEB" (VOC) item  on the dbms and tried to list the
contents.

2 Demo (0)-> AE VOC DTAWEB
Top of "DTAWEB" in "VOC", 3 lines, 51 characters.
*--: p
001: DIR
002: \\AsiOlyWaWeb\E$\WebDev
003: \\AsiOlyWaWeb\E$\WebDev
Bottom.

2 Demo (0)-> LIST DTAWEB
Open \\AsiOlyWaWeb\E$\WebDev error.
Open file DTAWEB error.

...but excluding the "E$" in the path I get a different error from UD.

2 Demo (0)-> AE VOC DTAWEB

2 Demo (0)-> LIST DTAWEB
errno=2: No such file or directory

Open file error.

I'm thinking there's something obvious I'm missing, maybe a UniAdmin
configuration.  Or maybe UD runs under different credentials, so there would
be permission problems from inside of UD.

Thanks,

Bill

Subject: RE: [U2] UD Sharing a network directory

Are the UD and web server on the same domain? I haven't been able to get it
to work across domains (but I haven't tried really hard yet).

It looks like webdev is a share name. Try something like
\\asiolywaweb\c$\web\dev (or whatever the path is to the directory).

If that doesn't work let us see what !dir \\AsiOlyWaWeb\WebDev gives you.
