How to browse directory server machine instead of local machine

Question

Scenario:

1.My web application is hosted in the following IP (13.67.3.12).

2.We have 'Browse' option for selecting the file. If I open the browser window from the client machine (13.67.3.21) it is showing local machine directory instead of it should open server (13.67.3.12) machine folder directory. Is it possible in web application? Is there any way to do it using javascript/jquery/node.js/anytools?

Answer 1

One way to do it is to create a shared folder on the server, then assign permissions to the share based on either a active directory service account, or user group. In the file dialog options, you can set the start directory of the dialog. You can set this to default to the shared folder location.
