Connect a folder from another server

How can I connect a folder from another server?

\\other_server\folder\

Because I can use external sources via http, can I also receive data from another server as locally?

Need read img`s (.jpg, .png etc) not from path Extensions\MyExtension\*.jpg.

In IIS I created a virtual directory, enabled browsing.

Now the images are accessible from any other server along the path I specified in the virtual directory via http.

For information.

The direct path \\server\ folder\your_image.jpg placed in a textbox and reflected as a picture is terrible to have RAM. It grows with each new picture.

Extension - is not growing at all.
