Question
I need to load help files from my windows C# application and move/copy to other system (to its local drive). Application (same C# windows application) on the local system will use it for help.
What needs to be done to accomplish this?
I understand File.Copy()
but i don't know, will it hold for remote system also?
Solution
File.Copy(
@"C:\localpath\file.hlp",
@"\\remotemachinename\localpathonremotemachine\file.hlp");
Or something along those lines... the second value is a UNC path.
And in case the target location needs a login and password, the following answer is applicable: Copy file to remote computer using remote admin credentials (Thanks to Carlos Rendon for finding it).
OTHER TIPS
File.Copy() Copies an existing file to a new file. The target can be a remote share (UNC).
