Re^2: Cannot acces a remote file

Actually, using "D$" should work, even without creating a share. Windows provides a "secret" share for every drive where the name of the share is the drive letter followed by a dollar sign. These shares are possibly only available to admins.

$path = '\\\\172.x.x.x\\D$\\foo\\bar\\filename';
