Can ColdFusion use Windows Authentication to access network shares?

Boston495 (IS/IT--Management)

My company wants the IIS server separate from the file server, so I need to create links of files that can be searched using ColdFusion.
Problem: I need the current logged in user using IIS Windows Authentication to be used to access the files on the server.
From what I read, the ColdFusion service is what handles the authentication which is not useful because I need to use the creds of the current logged in user.

Is there a way to use ColdFusion to create the links and use an alternative to the ColdFusion service or CF programming to access the files on the other server on the local network?

Thanks!
