Accessing files from file server

[Priya Khanna <Pr...@infosys.com>]

Hi All,



         I am developing an application using struts and tomcat. In my
application I want to provide the functionality of download and upload
of files from server. But these files will not be on machine running
tomcat. It will be on file server.



First issue I am facing is that if I run tomcat using local service then
I am not able to access these files in my application. Though I have
added my computer name on which tomcat server is running to file server.
But if I run tomcat as a person who is in domain then I am able to
access these files.



Second issue is that - If I want to upload the files then I want to
check that user who is logged in to the application has write access or
not on file server. If not then he should get error message. My user
will be logged in to application as same user id as his/her domain user
id. But I am not sure how to achieve this.



If any one has pointer on this then please let me know.

["Hartrich, James CTR USTRANSCOM J6" <Ja...@ustranscom.mil>]

I believe what you need to do is start your tomcat service as a
tomcat-user who specifically has access to the file server.
