in thread Cannot acces a remote file

It seems you first have to mount a share on the other server... try Win32::NetResource from CPAN, that does a good job

If you want to find out what to do, try the dosbox command

net use z: \\172.22.1.73\D$ /user:administrator secret

(if secret is the password). If you type \\172.22.1.73 in your windows explorer and you see the share (e.g. with the name d), then use something like

net use z: \\172.22.1.73\D /user:me secret

(net help use gives you more information about this)

If that works fine, you've got enough information to mount it with Win32::NetResource

Best regards,

    Perl's open can handle UNC paths, but that's true if you need to login as someone different than on the current machine
