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
The open() function wraps the fopen() function, which doesn't support
UNC, just local paths. You have to mount the network share first (assign
a drive letter).
Christian, with respect: what are you talking about?
<code>
print open (r"\\localhost\c$\python27\python.exe").read (100)
</code>
The OP's problem is that he's trying to call open () on the
share itself, not on a file within it.
