in thread accessing files on rmote host

As I remember opening a file through smb requires you adding "smb:/" In front of the file name.

I did not take the time to list all the available options I know there are more so I just finish with "...etc"

I think the OP should have told us how he's accessing the remote file system without using scripts

    Nope, that's correct just with a few I/O wrapper libraries, but not in the general case.
