Hi,
I need to be able to generate a list of files from a virtual directory on a 2nd web server.

While the code below works fine for the local system
Code:
DirectoryInfo myDir = new DirectoryInfo(Server.MapPath(""));

If I try & utilise a path of howvere I get an error that this is not a valid virtual path

Anyone have any ideas how I can achieve this ?

Thanks
 
You'll need to use the absolute local path of the virtual server e.g. "\\server2\dirlist"
