FileSystemWatcher as a service

Hi,

i am trying write a service program that will monitor a directory on a remote compter. Several Problems exist here, i think, One the remote computer is on our network, but in a workgroup. Doesn't look like I can use the administrive share to access this. How can I authenicate with that computer via a service program running the filesystemwatcher I don't think this machine is in the DNS also, because for me to see it in windows explorer, I have to type in \\172.30.132.123\c$.

Any Help

Thanks,

Brian

Focus
If you're running a service on a given computer, then the service has whatever access rights you give it. Usually services run as a SYSTEM user, which means a given service can do just about anything. So if your service says "file changed" then fire up your \\12.32.123.432\c$ and do what you want to do.
