Re: How to create file on network share from ASP.NET

Hi Andre,

You can certainly use the System.IO classes to create files on a network
drive in the same way that you would create them on a local machine drive.
You can use a UNC path if you wish, or a mapped drive. The rules are the
same. The only differences would be:

1. Security: Use an Active Directory domain account with the proper
permissions. Use impersonation if necessary.
2. Unix drives: You may have some issues with the files themselves,
especially if they are text files. Carriage returns are different on Unix
systems. The system may be using ASCII instead of Unicode text encoding as
well.
