Changing IUSER settings using XP Pro

[SkydivingSteve]

Can somebody talk me through changing IUSER access on XP Pro.

Assume I don't know anything about IIS (not far from the truth!).

Thanks in advance.

What would you like to accomplish?

I have an "Unspecified error" (error code = 0x80004005)" on my local machine. I need to make sure IUSER has access to the temporary file whose path is defined in the environment variable (C:\Windows\Temp).

MS support (

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/251254/en-us)

says, "Also ensure that the IUSER anonymous IIS account has access to the temporary folder." When I go Start -> control panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services I don't see an option to change IUSER account settings.

Thanks,

Steve

Go to C:\Windows\Temp - right-click on the Temp folder, Security tab, and add the Local IUSER account(give appropriate permissions).

Define a TMP or TEMP environment variable and assign the variable to an existing folder. If you are accessing the Access database from IIS, be certain to check the system environment settings rather than environment variables of the logged-on user. Also ensure that the IUSER anonymous IIS account has access to the temporary folder.
