Java does not get file list from shared folder in another server.

Question

Hi,
I'm using java 1.4.2.16,
Command below does not get file list.
import java.io.;*..
File file = new File("\\\\10.242.22.28\\SapMII");
File[] files = file.listFiles();
SapMII folder is Everyone full Control permission.
How can i solve this problem?

Could you please post replies in a more helpful way? Just informing me that it was an NPE doesn't really tell me anything. Post the stacktrace (Exception#printStackTrace()). And the listFile() methods API has this to say:
Returns null if this abstract pathname does not denote a directory, or if an I/O error occurs.I'm able to run this sample code easily:
import java.io.File;
public class TestFileList {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          File file = new File("\\\\10.40.55.33\\shared");
          File [] files = file.listFiles();
          for(File currentFile: files )
               System.out.println(currentFile.getName());
}
