[thelist] ASP FSO problem.

To troubleshoot a user context problem, use Filemon from www.sysinternals.com
that will tell you which user account is getting a permission denied error if
that error is being raised from the NTFS file system (i.e. a permissions
problem). Perhaps IIS is not using the IUSR account.

Also when you set the permissions - did you choose to apply those permissions
to all folders, subfolders and file on the disk?

Cheers

: Hi Ken,
: 
: I've given the M: drive full permissions for the IUSR_MACNAME account, and
: checked in effective permissions and everything is marked, and it still
: get's permission denied on the item.size

: I'm stumped :)

: : Yes, the item.name works but item.size get's permission denied. I don't
: : know why ?:)
: :
: : Drive M: (which is a local HD) will give me a permission denied, however
: : if I set it to the CD-ROM drive or my USB Key it works. It must be a
: : permission issue somewhere.
: 
: I suppose you next need to check the effective permissions on those files.
: 
: Right-click on a file -> properties -> security -> advanced -> effective
: permissions -> add IUSR_Machinename
