This forum is great so much good information, but I haven't found what I need and am probably looking in the wrong place. I am writing software to perform backups across my local network at home. When the backup is done the software will shutdown all the computers. I am sure that there is already software out there to do this, but this is as much as a learning project as it is a functional one.
QUESTION How do I access my network. I have windows xp sp3 and I know that when going through My Computer I can go to My Network Places and see the computer name ex:
abcdef. However when I try to use the win32lib commands to open the computer and a folder nothing happens ex:
abcdefg\My Documents. I am using the standard walk_dir command, but I've also tried using the demo file from win32lib to do this. My win32lib version is 0.70.4a. How can I go about accessing the other computer to write and read files in Euphoria.
Thanks for your help, MichaelB
