Access file on a share(File server)

Question

I want to access a file server that is not present in my network, but I have credentials of other domain that can be used to access the file. How do I gain access to the file in share? Is it possible to gain access to the file using a java program? Operating System is Windows. I want to read the contents from .txt and .csv files present in the share and display it on a web page.

What operating system? What does *access* mean specifically? You're going to need to add more details and a more specific question than *Is it possible?*. — Ken White, Jul 10 '17 at 16:53

Hello welcome to SO ! Please try to be specific in your question, as described in https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask . This helps everybody here. Can you provide us with more informaiton on how the share path of the other domain looks like ? Also have you considered creating a drive map ? — John-Philip, Jul 10 '17 at 17:38

You can use ftp protocol. And also can make a map drive from share folder on your system. It's a simple solution.
