Now sense the IUSR_'Account' has access to that folder.

In a browser IE can \\computer\folder\folder and get to that folder.

Not secure.

the FileSystemObject does allow both UNC and Drive Letter mapping. Your problem is probably a user privilege issue. You probably need to give the IUSR account privileges to the folder you want to work with.

By default the account used by IIS for anonymous access is IUSR_COMPUTERNAME. So if your computer is named "FRED", then the account would be IUSR_FRED. Right click the folder, select Security, and add the IUSR account.

I have an asp page on a local webserver. this page is suppose to go to a network share to get the folders but its not working. it says

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found

I have this.
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set d_office=fs.GetFolder("\\smurf\temp\cb\page")

the asp page works if its in the same network share. but i would like to put this asp page in the local machine. Any method? Thanks.
