Nope - that wont work. The problem is there are 3 systems in the problem and
in most cases, the third system (with Foxpro files) doesn't know who the
user is that's attempting to access the files (the user running the browser)
because the web server was never given the user's password to pass along.
(look up Delegation and it's ramifications to Windows security)
The ONLY way I got that to work was to use Basic authentication and make
your user's log into your web application with valid credentials on the
network. then, when the web server uses his credentials to access the
third system, he's
authenticated.
The other solution you have is to put the files on the Web server, and use
integrated windows authentication.
Then, when the application goes off to the third

Hello,
I tried but it it did not work. The data is on another server and the
aspnet user (from the webserver) can not be supplied on the databaseServer.
So i created another user with administrator rights. and used this as a
anonymous user . This user has rights on the webserver and on the database
server.
Any other suggestions ?
Thanks
Christine

box entirely and use window authentication. I'm pretty sure this will work

news:uR**************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... Hello,
On a local website but i want to access data on a remote drive (a
mapped drive). The data are Foxpro files on a directeory of a mapped drive.
I have a problem with security ( no tabel can be opened error 52 in
foxpro )
I search the web for a solution.
Server 1 = Windows 2000 (Webserver) and server2 = database server (NT
server)
The two server belong to the same domain.
i created a user on the databaseserver (domainserver) who has
administrator rights .
On the webserver
I already used impersonate="true" in the config.web file
I added this new user on the webserver
and in the IIS : anonymus is set on with this new created user with
his paswoord
ON the DatabaseServer
the database files themselves have full control for the user created.
But still get no rights
Does anyone know what i am doing wrong ?
