Hi All,

I was trying to access a network shared folder on a windows network. I
couldn’ t find of a good documentation online to do that. Are there any
recommendations on how to do it in windows. So if my folder is shared as
\\ameetn\Dropbox <file:///\\ameetn\Dropbox> and when I am trying to open
it up, it says I don’t have privileges to open it every time I try doing
that.

 >>> open("\\\\ameetn\\Dropbox")

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '\\\\ameetn\\Dropbox'

Al though I try this from the administrator cmd, I still get the same
error. Can anyone please recommend me a good way to do this.

\\ameetn\Dropbox is a folder. 'open' is for opening files.

If \\ameetn\Dropbox\foo is the path to a file, then:

    f = open(r"\\ameetn\Dropbox\foo")

will open it.
