Hi all,
I am trying to create a new directory on the server from an ASP.Net page (this is a sub directory of the web site). When I try to do this I get System.UnauthorizedAccessException error. So I assume I need to give IIS the permissions on the directory which I am saving into e.g. The folder “folder1” already exist. Now I want to let the user create a folder called folder2 inside folder1. So I assume that folder1 needs IIS write permissions? This is on a Winhost.com server and I also do not have IIS on my dev/home machine.

Does anybody know how I can do this? I think I have seen IIS express? Anybody tried this?

Any help appreciated.
