Permissions Issue

[Esoteric]

Hey all, I need to access a remote directory on another server within my domain using the File.System.Object. No matter what I do I cannot seem to get permission to this.

What have I tried.
1) Mapping a drive: I:\foldername
2) Using the full path \\SERVERNAME\sharename\foldername
3) Made sure the IUSER_SERVER has full rights to said directory.

Still I get nothing

Code Sample:
-------------------------------------------------------
Set Tools = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot
filevar = "I:\folder"
if Tools.FolderExists(filevar) then
I = 1
else
I = 0
end if

esoteric,

Try using this in your ASP page...

<%
drv = &quot;I:&quot;
share = &quot;\\servername\sharename&quot;
subfldr = &quot;mysubfolder&quot;
user = &quot;MYUID&quot;
pwd = &quot;Mypwd&quot;

set WshNetwork = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Wscript.Network&quot
set fso=Server.CreateObject(&quot;Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot

On error Resume Next
WshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive drv, share, false, user, pwd

If err.number = 0 then
if fso.folderexists(drv & &quot;\&quot; & subfldr) then
response.write &quot;Folder exists&quot;
else
response.write &quot;Folder does not exist&quot;
end
Else
response.write &quot;Error making drive connection&quot;
End If

%>
