Copying File to Network Path - Permissions Problem

Hi,

I've got an asp application which allows users to upload files onto the webserver. As a part of this process I need to copy the file into a network directory (this is done via functions written in a VB6 ActiveX dll). The network directory is shared with permissions that contain Fill Control for Everyone. The problem is the dll's function is being called by the IIS_WPG user who is only a user on the machine (not the network).

I guess my question is, Is there anyway to copy a file to a network path using a network users login and password??

Cheers,

DJ.
 
Can't you give the IIS user explicit access to the folder?
