I would love to see an example of using socket server.
And an example or llink of how to do impersonate to get remote network files
in a more managed .NET way.  Like maybe using the NetworkCredential object
for network files???

I tried using smb, but it does not seem to work.
It does work if I use the Mac's Go | Connect to Server menu method however.

I tried both of these path's unsuccessfully:
sPath = "smb://192.168.0.250/Shared File Depot"; 
sPath = "smb://user:password@192.168.0.250/Shared File Depot";

dir = Directory.GetFiles(sPath, "*");

The error I receive is:
System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Directory 'smb:/192.168.0.250/Shared
File Depot' not found.   

In all cases it drops the first path delim like so: "smb:/"...
I tried "smb:////..." but with same error message.
I tried "smb:///..."  but with same error message.

(Sorry if you get this twice, I did a Reply All in my email, but it didn't
seem to post to web or alert me)
