This code needs to be performed for my work.

string filePath = "\\\\192.168.7.202\\Sample\sample.log"
var accessControlList = Directory.GetAccessControl( filePath );

Unfortunately, this code can't work without a Network Credentials. so the Network Credential for 192.168.7.202 has to be added on a computer I use.

Can anyone know how to add Netowrk Credentials by C# script, with its IP Address, Username, and Password?

This is my code, but doesn't work.....

string ipAddress = "192.168.7.202";
string username = "Administrator";
string password = "abcd";

NetworkCredential netCredential = new NetworkCredential(username, password, ipAddress);

CredentialCache theNetCache = new CredentialCache();
theNetCache.Add("192.168.7.202", 3389, "Basic", netCredential);

string filePath = "\\\\192.168.7.202\\Sample\sample.log"
var accessControlList = Directory.GetAccessControl( filePath ); **//Error occur without Credential**

May not have to keep the Credential permanently, at least need it for the Directory.GetAccessControl(filePath).

Can anyone give me a solution please...?

FYI, adding Credential of 192.168.7.202 to the Red box by myself makes Directory.GetAccessControl works well. Hope I can do it on C# script..

Another option would be use to the net use command to map the path with credentials to a drive and access it that way. – Mike Zboray Jul 23 '18 at 07:55
CodeCaster// well, the links are not really about my case... thanks though. – Jay. K Jul 24 '18 at 01:01
