Hi Nagesh,

My first question is: can you please clarify which technology you're using - classic ASP (which is what Visual Interdev 6 produces code in) or ASP.NET (Visual Studio 2003 and above)?

If you're using classic ASP then you need to grant read and write permissions to the IWAM_MACHINENAME account (MACHINENAME should be replaced with the name of your web server) on the folder where you have chosen to upload your files to.

If you're using .NET on Windows XP, you need to grant the same permissions to the ASPNET account.
If you're using .NET on Windows Server 2003 or above (including Vista and 2008) then you need to grant these permissions to the NETWORK SERVICE account.

With regards on how to set up your server to be accessed outside of your LAN, this is something for the Networking forum, however, I can tell you I'd need to know some details about your hardware setup before I'd be able to help you any further.

Hope this helps.
