.NET Forum / ASP.NET / Security / December 2004Access remote folder files in the network
In my ASP.NET application, all the images files are stored on a machine other than my web-server. In a webform i am accessing the image files stored in that folder in the remote machine. Folder path is configurable in the web.config file. The webserver and the folder machine in the same network. I am not able to access that foler. What is the shortest way to do this. So that i should able to access the images files from the remote machine. Rajesh, The easiest way to solve this problem is -Mirrored Account. If you are using ASPNET (local on web server) account to run the ASP.NET application, create another ASPNET(local on file server) account on the file/remote server with strong password. You must change the password to run the ASP.NET on web server in the machine.config (<ProcessModel> element) to macth the paswords. You can get additional details at - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetsec/html/S ecNetHT01.asp This was a perfect solution for me since my file server and the web server are located on two different domains. Hope this helps. Prodip K. Saha Programmer Analyst EMC Mortgage Corporation > In my ASP.NET application, all the images files are stored on a machine other > than my web-server.
