>I'd consider that very unlikely. Two workstations, both with the same version of .Net, one running XP and the other Win7, both should have the same results working against a remote server or storage subsystem.

Then, there would be something that I would need to adjust in the method. This is in reference to the first message of this thread. This works as is on several PCs and servers. But, I cannot get it to work when I execute it on my Windows 7 and entering the necessary IP and volume name for my laptop. Both have the same username and password. So, I tried with no credentials and with credentials. I also tried without the volume name so I can get all the drives and this did not work either.

On 2008+, pretty much everything is disabled unless you explicitly enable it, which is much better for security. On the server in question, even if RPC support is allowable, it may never have been enabled.

That is Windows Server 2008. So, it may explain why the RPC was not allowed by default.
