In a default setup, ASP pages run under the local IUSR_[serverName] local
account. Another machine on your network with a share will not recognize
SERVERNAME\IUSR_SERVERNAME when that user account tries to access the share,
so access will be denied. If you are in a domain environment, you can
change things in IIS so that your anonymous user is not the local IUSR
account, but is a domain account instead. Then just make sure that domain
account has NTFS and share permission to the share.
