accessing csv file on another server

macastor

I know its probably something really simply, but I just can't seem to get it to work. I'm trying to create & write to a csv file accross our network on another server. I've looked at previous messages similar to mine and I still can't get it to work. I'm using an IP address to identify the server name.

$file = "\\10.168.3.189\directory\directory\". "$expfile";
$fp = fopen($file, "w+");
fclose($fp);

Warning: fopen(\10.168.3.189\directory\directory\filename.csv): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\MPI\tstexport.php on line 98

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\MPI\tstexport.php on line 99

That only works with a protocol (and the correct slashes).

http://10.169.3.189/asdfasdfasdfa

or [url]ftp://10.169.3.189/asdf/asdf/asdf[/url]

Hey thanks!!! Thats one thing I didn't try, adding http. Well that takes care of the "No such file or directory" Warning, but now i'm getting a different Warning:

Warning: fopen(http://10.169.3.189/asdfad/adfas/filename.csv): failed to open stream: HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections. in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\MPI\tstexport.php on line 98

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\MPI\tstexport.php on line 99

Thanks,
