We're using a perl script to fetch images from the inhouse server & pump them to a remote server with much higher bandwidth.

I want to remove the Everyone account from the target folder on the remote server, so users may only access it with username & password. When I do this, the perl script stops working. I can only assume the perl script is operating under the Everyone account.

How do I change the functionality so that the Everyone account is removed & yet the perl sync script still works?

Using ActivePerl-5.8.8.816. on Win2k Server running IIS 5.
User accounts have already been assigned to target folder.

Perl sync script was written years ago by a contractor, & they work perfectly on public access servers. Not so well for private servers until I get this resolved.

Please forgive my naivety, I have no experience with perl... only graphics rendering automation. Any help much appreciated - KD
