Copy files from Mac to Windows

I need to copy files from a mac to a win-server. Is it possible to copy a file without mounting the server share first? I would prefer this if possible. Normally I would go for something like this: smb://server/share/folder/file as target. But how could I do this with BlitzMax? |

Unless you write your own samba client then no, you have to mount the share. Attempting to access the path *might* auto mount the share if the security credentials are stored in the user's keychain, but I don't know if that will happen when accessing from code rather that the Finder... |

hmm, so I will go the standard way and mount the server, which is somehow a pity as it is not that flexible. On the other hand Mac users are used to it, other programs do it similar what I saw. |
