Impersonation using absolute path

Question

I am trying to access a file using impersonation. Everything works fine when the file folder is shared. However when the folder is not shared and try to access the file using absolute path, it does not work.

It works: \\\\folder\\test.txt

It does not work: \\\\nt9999\\d$\\folder\\test.txt

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

The D$ share is called an Administrative share , and may be disabled, or the user that you are impersonating may not have access to it.

What error do you get?
