FileSystem access to network

I want to write a script that can read and write files to
a place on a network file-server. Since the machine-local
IUSR is not a domain user, it cannot access the resource.
I want to provide IUSR limited access to a particular
place on the file server. Can anyone help me think of a
reasonably secure work-around to this issue. We tried
creating a virtual directory that points to the share
(using a domain account), but even then, site users can
see the files (no security), but the fso (IUSR) cannot (no
functionality). There must be a way....

Thanks,
