Make sure the user account used to run asp.net has access rights to this
location.

The Y: mapping is for *your* account, which is not the account the
website runs under. Moreover, this ASPNET account is a local account
with limited priviledges. It can not access the network for example.
You might need to van the site impersonate some domain-user that *can*
access that share *and* use the UNC path (\\server\share) to access it.

Please let me know how should this be done :
impersonate some domain-user that *can*
access that share *and* use the UNC path (\\server\share) to access it.

My problem:
When trying to read the file the user selects in PDA it gives an error
message
DirectoryNotFoundException:could not find a part of the path.(The same code
works fine in my system and diff remote servers)

My Code:

Stream a = ReadStream(txtFilePath.Text);
Label1.Text = a.Length.ToString();
_______________________

using System.Security.Permissions;
[assembly: PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction.RequestMinimum, Name =
"FullTrust")]
namespace FileBus
{

public Stream ReadStream(string pathSource)
{
FileStream f = new FileStream(pathSource, FileMode.Open,
FileAccess.Read);
Stream a = (Stream)f;
return a;
}
}

Please help.
