[python-win32] how to know the native file path of computer A on computer B

[Michael Li]

Hi,
I got bunch of reply, thank you very much.
But they are not what i want.
Let me make it more clear, my code looks like:

     nRetCode = os.access(szFolder, os.F_OK)
     if nRetCode == 1:
         nRetCode = os.chdir(szFolder)
         szNormPath = os.path.normpath(szCommand)
         szBatchFile = szNormPath
         anArgs = [szBatchFile, 'NDEBUG']
         nRetCode = os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT, szBatchFile, anArgs)

The above code is on the computer A where python server
is running. The szFolder must be "C:\shared\database", not
"W:\database", because "W:" does not exist on computer A,
"W:" is on computer B.

Right now, szFolder comes from computer B as an argument inputed
on computer B, I want to make szFolder auto-decide if possible.
Any ideas ?

Best regards.
