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.

See this article for some more info:

Greetings- I am running Python 2.3.3 on HP-UX and would like to access an Oracle 9i database. Looking through the vaults, I see 4 or 5 modules that might work and was wondering if anyone is currently hitting Oracle and what are you using. I get to build a new system from the ground up and the powers that be are allowing me to do it in Python. I'm quite happy. Thanks for your help,

I have converted my Access database into *.mde format. However, my colleague can’t seem to open the file. The message shows that another user has opened it in exclusive mode. However, the file is actually not open at that time. We are connected by server, so she accesses the file through a shared folder located on my PC. I have not set any other security features other than locking my VBA code with a password. Is there any reason that...

Hi newsgroup! Can anyone tell me where I should put a simple Access database file in order to be accessible for every computer in the network (same workgroup)? There does not need to be any protection (I heard people say that I should buy a dedicated server or have special rights for each and every user, but I can keep it simple since there will be no intruders - no internet connection available -). I don't think that the "Programs"...

From the amount of articles about this one I’m sure this gets asked a lot, but I haven’t yet found a succinct article which explains what is required in its entirety. I work using Visual Studio 2005 SP1 mainly in ASP.Net using VB.Net 2.0. I have an application which runs without error on my development server so I believe that the underlying code is correct. Most of my applications including this one runs on a shared server (Win

We have an existing ASP (VBScript) app hosted on IIS 6.0 (W2K3). We need to restrict access to specific users within our company network. To reduce development effort I figured the easiest solution was to enable Integrated Windows Authentication. However once I enable IWA and disable...

Hello, I've searched the net (and this site in particular) but haven't found anything useful yet. I guess this could be a .NET question too, but I believe it's a windows permissions question in the first place. We have a .NET application that read/writes files to a shared folder. It doesn't use a mapped drive, so it accesses the folder using the \\hostname "scheme". I've read that the .NET application should run as a domain user in order to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
