Hello every one,

I'm trying to write a code that connects to remote windowsNT machine and get list of all the files in a specified folder.
When i run my code from local win2000 system it works perfectly.. but if run the same code from a unix machine i get NULL POINTER EXCEPETION.

THIS IS THE WORKING CODE ON MY LOCAL MACHINE
***********************************************************
File file = new File("\\\\remotewindowsnt\\folderX$
");
File list[] = file.listFiles();
for(int i=0; i<4; i++)
System.out.println(list[i].getName());

***********************************************************

Please let me know if any of you have a solution for this.

Thanks in advacne

maybe you could map the drive onto the locaal file system as a samba drive then use it that way ? because im sure you have to add the file type to the beginning of the uri

I don't agree,that because different file type .If that true,File CAN read some "information",maybe some bytes.

Maybe some exceptions occurs,so you should try and catch
