I work at a company where we log on to windows using a username and password. There is a global server with files that I need to use R to do some analysis on. That server requires my windows credentials to logon. When I access the server from internet explorer it automatically uses my windows credentials to logon. When I use R it doesn't work. I have tried:
setInternet2(TRUE) con = url(description="http://username:passw...@server.net", open="r") open(con) which gave me a timeout error. I have also tried: setwd("\\\\server.net") which gives me the error: Error in setwd("\\\\server.net") : cannot change working directory [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
