How to create a folder and copy a file in server machine? I would like to create a folder in a server machine. I got a new user for this with password. How to create a folder programmatically and copy a file to it. I have tried with

Directory.CreateDirectory(path)

I am getting the attached documents from outlook and saving it to network drive. It works fine when it is saved in local drive. But it fails when saving it in network drive. Also I have a new user account created with full rights to the network path.

But it says : System.IO.IOException: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String fullPath, String path, DirectorySecurity dirSecurity)
