If you are doing this to only one other domain the quick and easy way would be to wrap the FilesystemObject into another Com object and create a new application in com+ services. Change the Identity to suit the proper authorisation and you should get access. worked for me.<br />

Well I know the solution I provided works (I use it)<br />
<br />
&gt;&gt;Or some alternative that will allow me to read files on this remote server?<br />

and it is an alternative.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a piece of code that will read a folder and check each file's modified date. I want to read a file that exists on a server that is on a different domain. I have a specific login, password and domain that I use to map this drive manually. <br />
<br />
Is there a way to pass a login/password/domain to the VBScript GetFolder method? Or some alternative that will allow me to read files on this remote server? <br />
<br />
Here is the code that I am using. As long as the user that executes this code has permissions on this folder, I am fine. But when I move out of the domain, the code fails due to permissions errors. <br />
<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Set fso = CreateObject (&quot;Scripting.FileSystemObje<wbr />ct&quot;) <br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;filePath = AryDrives(x)<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Set f = fso.GetFolder(filePath) <br />

File System object in VbScript

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

Visual Basic Classic

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
