VB6 - best way to connect to remote server to copy a file

[katya]

can anyone advise on the best way to connect to a remote computer from VB6 without operator intervention. Can windows dialup networking be called. If the dialup connection already exists how can I 'find' if a computer name eg //APC exists and list the shared folders.<br>
<br>
I know tis might be a big question. but I have looked everywhere I know on the net and no one seems to have written much on this. These is lots about winsock and tcpip but i suspect that is a lower level than I need to get into for this.<br>

There are many factors that stand in your way (for good reason), permissions and more. You're right. It's a &quot;big question&quot;.<br>
<br>
Try narrowing your focus. Big questions can't be answered (eg. What is the meaning of life?). Little questions (eg. how many fingers do I have?) can be guessed easily (no warranty, expressed or implied).<br>

Little questions are much more our forte. Start from the beginning and work your way to an answer.
