How to create or save files in a different domain

Hey,

I have an SSIS package that creates a new file and saves results into that file. However, the requirement has it that I need to create this file on a server residing in a different domain. How can I achieve this in an SSIS package when it is scheduled as a job?

Thanks,

When using SQLAgent, you should be aware of permission-related issues like the use of proxy accounts that may come into play. SSIS doesn't have special handling for different domains. For example, if you are using the flat file destination adapter to write data, it will just attempt to write to the file without recognizing where the file is residing. If you are having trouble writing directly to a file in a different domain, it might be easier if you create and write to a file locally using IS (feasibility depending on the size of file) and then copy it over using another mechanism that's proven to work across domains.|||

The obvious method would be to setup a trust between the domains, and just grant permission in the normal way. If that is not an option for you, then the only other method I have used is to manipulate files accross domains is NET USE the old DOS command. You can connect to a share and supply a username and password.
