netfileenum vb to vb.net migration

Question

Hello,

I am using netfileenum in vb.net to see open files. When I am passing null as the servername,basepath,user as a parameter in netfileenum function, it is working fine and showing the opened files of local system but if I pass servername as "servername" for remote machine, I am getting error as 123. How to pass the servername in netfileenum function? Please suggest.

I don't know if it will help, but I've read that servername must be unicode, so try following:

Dim srvName As String = " MyServerName "
Dim srvUnicode As String = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(srvName.Trim))
