device to computer

[Techno]

Hi

hmm, i am going to do this a bit later but its on my mind alot.

im going to be making a .NET app (C#) which allows you to view folders/files on your computer.

this will be made using .NET CF so it will be on a mobile device. Question is, is there a way of getting information/contents etc... when you connect to a Windows computer using TCP/IP ?

so for example, I may wish to get all files on the computer on drive C (just root)

from client app (.NET CF) I should be able to connect to the computer using tcp/ip but then how do I "map" or get the contents/folders of the computer that i have connected to?

I will do this as soon as i can get back to my dev computer after watching some tv

if you have enough rights at the end computer. you can simply type its ipaddress follwed by c$ to get the contents of c drive... and same for others... but why???

yeh thats exactly what I thought too but .NET CF is different in terms of it's workings.

but why? ah.. can't say yet
