connecting to shared folder in windows with java

I need to connect to a shared folder on a remote windows machine through java , where i put my domain authentication (username and password ) in the code , here is my code

 File file = new File("\\\\theRemoteIP\\webapps");   
    File[] files = file.listFiles();  
    System.out.println("access done");  

    for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++)  
    {  
        String name = files[i].getName();  
        System.out.println(name);  
    }

Thanks

  • You should use SmbFile and NtlmPasswordAuthentication from JCIFS. Here is a simple piece of code to show you how to do :

    String url = "smb://yourhost/yourpath/";
NtlmPasswordAuthentication auth = new NtlmPasswordAuthentication(null, "user", "password");
SmbFile dir = new SmbFile(url, auth);
for (SmbFile f : dir.listFiles())
{
    System.out.println(f.getName());
}
