In this asp.net web application, users can upload files to the server through a web interface. All the uploaded files are save in a server side folder. If I want to create a new win form desktop client (actually, its a WPF application) which can be used to upload files to that same server side folder as web interface does, how can I share that server side folder with that win form client? Any alternative suggestions are also welcome.

thanks for all in advance.

    Like answered in What is the best way to store files in a (asp.net + wcf) web application:

    • Use the WCF tier as a common ground and store the images behind that service. As I said it’s going to be an extra to pull the byte arrays over.
    • Store the images in the Web UI tier and have a service (asmx or WCF one) to expose the images to your winforms/WPF client.
    • Make a share for the winforms/WPF client on the server where the web ui runs, and where the images are. Of course be sure to be respectful to security and possible hacks.
