>Ah, that would make sense. However, this is something I cannot do. So, for as long as we don't have this support in .NET, one way would then be to use a 3rd party tool.
I'm not sure that would help. If it's a remote host, you have to have some sort of permissions on that host to be able to see shares and get information about them. If you don't have enough permissions to be able to map a drive, I don't see how a 3rd party library could help.
