My current application needs to retrieve files in a directory on our web server. The server is on our network but not in our domain (in the DMZ).

I dont want to create a drive on the user's pc as they will need to know the username and password.

Is there a way to impersonate a user only for the execution of a function? Then revert back to the current user? I know that you can do permission checks against functions, but instead I want to give permission.
