using file system object across network

I have a web site that uses NT authentication. It accesses a file on another
server using FSO. The user has full control of that file yet when trying to
access it via the website they get a Access Denied error. Shouldn't IIS use
the current security context (which has rights to file) to access the file?
Any ideas why this is not working?

Unfortunatly, you cannott "daisy chain" NT challenge/response authentication
like that. You'd have to use basic authentication. Take a look at this
article. http://support.microsoft.com/?id=214806
