Hi,Can anyone point me to a way to access windows shared folders from the network using a python script. I tried accessing using open, which is mentioned to work perfectly on the web, but it gives me following errors >>>open(NW_PATH) it gives me a permission denied error as follows: >>> open("\\\\ameetn\\DropBox\\") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '\\\\ameetn\\' >>> open("\\\\ameetn\\DropBox") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '\\\\ameetn\\DropBox' I am running Python 2.6 on Windows 7 platform.
"ameetn" is the name of the machine and "DropBox" is the name of a shared folder on that machine. The answer hasn't changed. 'open' is for opening _files_. Give 'open' the path to a _file_. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
