I used a dll from this site http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/14358/User-Impersonation-in-NET
Now what I'm trying to do is to access the remote directory and get its files. Whenever i tried doing this there is no error but when I'm trying to debug it the impersonation is null and there are no token so maybe you can give me insights about this tnx!. 

ImpersonateUser imp = new ImpersonateUser();
try
{
    imp.Impersonate("bla", "bla", "bla");
    try
    {
        string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(@"\\servername\folder", "*.txt");
        foreach (string file in files)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(file);

        }
    }
    catch
    {
    }
    finally
    {
    }
}

    what token is 0? Why do you try to impersonate yourself on localmachine and get localfiles, but in question mentioned remote folder? – Iłya Bursov Oct 18 '13 at 02:33

  • I have edited your title. Please see, "[Should questions include “tags” in their titles?](http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/19190/)", where the consensus is "no, they should not". – John Saunders Oct 18 '13 at 03:03

  • There are tons of low quality articles on CodeProject, which even fail to mention what are the permissions required by the executing account, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w070t6ka.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff647404.aspx#paght000023_impersonatingbyusingwindowsidentity – Lex Li Oct 18 '13 at 03:30
