Thanks David, I try to clarify my situation. I have a JSP running in local computer in tomcat. This JSP should read from a remote machine. The files are under d:\archive\files. These directory which provide a repository functionality could not be transfer somewhere else. The files must be saved there. 1) Scennario one: The remote machine does not hava e webserver 2) Scenario two: a tomcat is running on remote computer
My questions: 1) Do I need the webserver at all to access remotely the files? 2) Is it poosile to access the data on d:\archive without to put them in a webserver directory or not? If no, do I need configuration for the webserver (f.i. tomcat)to allow access to the files from outside? --- David Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb: > Here's the picture you painted in the original email > and I based my > answer on: > > 1.
