Hullo All -
I've got an odd question, and i've seen a couple other threads on this, but none of them seemed to help me out. . .
I have IIS 5.1 running on a Windows 2000 Server called "Openview". I'm trying to display the size of a file on remote server called "Exchange". at the command prompt on "Openview", I can run this command fine:
c:\>dir "\\exchange\shared folder\file.txt"
But, when i run this as a system call (using Perl), it dies with an access denied.
$strResults = `dir "\\exchange\shared folder\file.txt"`
Here's what i've tried so far. . .can anyone see if i'm missing something?
- I'm viewing the webpage. I'm a member of Domain Admins.
- The folder is shared so "Domain Admins" have full access, and the folder permissions itself has "Domain Admins" having read access.
- IIS directory authentication is set to "Integrated Windows Permissions"
- I tried modifying the COM object "IIS Out-Of-Process", and changing it from Openview\IWAM to my account (saw that in a Microsoft article), but that didn't seem to help. . .
I'm not sure were else to go. I'm pretty strong in terms of Perl/CGI, but really, i havn't played with IIS a whole lot, so i'm kind of lost at sea on this one. Can anyone suggest anything?
Much thanks in advance!
