Hi,

You can save any file to sever if the server path is shared.

E.G.

C#

AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetPrincipalPolicy(PrincipalPolicy.WindowsPrincipal);

WindowsIdentity identity = new WindowsIdentity(username, password);

WindowsImpersonationContext context = identity.Impersonate();

try
{
    File.Copy(@"c:\temp\File.txt", @"\\server Name or IP\folder\File.txt", true);
}
catch
{
    context.Undo();
}

You are going to copy file from your local machine and paste it into server so you required server credentials which have access to that particular folder

If server computer windows password disable then

Then you need to use AD authentication :
using (PrincipalContext ctx = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, null, "username", "password"))

Hi
I'd recommend using FTP.
