This is a dumb newbie questions:
I have an asp.net 2.0 website that needs to access a folder out on
another server. It needs to look at this folder and process files
which are uploaded by another program. What is the proper way to doing
this? Is it a virtual folder that I need?

Thanks in advance

Using the System.IO classes, you can access the file system, including
the network, but the ASPNET user must have the corresponding permissions.
