If the share name does not exist, then system will return NERR_NetNameNotFound error message. So please check your share name exactly with the shared device in the server. And also server name should begins with \\. If this parameter is NULL, the local computer is used. best of luck regards Vallikumar A

You didn't specify that to which machine have you connected to, so it is throwing that error. Use NetResource structure and WNetAddConnection to open the connection so that you can have access to the shared folders on the remote machine . You can also try and check other return values. Remember WNetAddConnection returns a DWORD value eg ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED etc. Does this solve your problem Wishes Anshuman

If you want to access the information from your machine then no need to give the share name(Server) with \\. Instead this give NULL. This will get the information from your local machine. regards Vallikumar A

The NetShareGetInfo function retrieves information about a particular shared resource on a server.??To what extent do you want to have the control??. SO if you need the control of the files/folders/printers that are residing on the other machine use NETRESOURCE structure and pass it to WNetAddConnection2 function. This opens the connection and you can get the control to the shared folders. Can you tell me what exactly do you want to do because there are a lot of roads that lead to somewhere from here but that would be useless mentioning here if they are of no use to you Wishes Anshuman

Use
NetShareEnum(NULL, ...)instead. If you need information about a particular share, useNetShareGetInfo(NULL, _T("NameOfShare"), ...).
