I am trying to set up a folder as a Virtual Folder but can't get the permissions right.
The folder is on the local drive of the server (D:\Files\ePlans\intranet\). I can set up the virtual folder fine so that it works as it should in the browser.
Problem is, the folder is also in our shared drive tree ie D:\Files is shared as \\hq1\files$\ and is mapped as W:\ so W:\ePlans\intranet\ is the same as the virtual drive.
What I need to do is set the permissions so that the Authenticated Users group can access the site through the intranet, but they can't browse to the folder through the W:\ drive.
Each time I change a permission it either blocks or allows both groups. I have IIS set up to use integrated authentication as that is needed for the site to function.
Can this be done? Any thoughts?
