How to recover the file that i delete from a network share?

Hope you guys can help me on this. I have a folder name 'share' (c:\share). When i delete a file, I can restore the file from recycle bin. But if I access the my share folder by network path (\\gamer\share) and delete a file from there, I can't find my file from the recycle bin.

1. Where is my file after i delete it?
2. How to recover my file that i delete it from network share?

OS: win98
 
AFAIK it can't be done. IF I am wrong let me know, because I have tried to find it before. Its simply gone man.

When you delete a file from a network share, its gone. Same thing happens if you delete from a floppy disk. Gone. Thats just the way it is.
 
*nods in agreement with above posts*

Network share files that get deleted over the network are not possible to recover, you will need to find it on a backup somewhere, and if you don't have a backup, you are SOL. There are no recovery programs that exist that can restore this type of delete easily. Only very sophisticated software used by law enforcement and some very high end data recovery centers have a chance of recovering this file, and even then, only if the system has not been in use at all since the file was deleted (i.e. no hard drive activity took place that wrote anything to the disk), and even then, the simple act of rebooting the system will have removed just about all chances that even that software has to recove those files completely.
