Hi,

Last week we created a new ASP application running on IIS 4. One of the procedure in this application writes some information to a text file on network server. Everything was working fine last week. This week web admin enabled Windows NT Challenge/Response Authentication for this project on IIS. Now the application is having problem to access txt file on the network sever. It is giving error "Permission Denied" message. I was wondering why the web sever/ application lost access to network sever when Windows NT Challenge/Response Authentication is enabled. Any ideas ?

THANKS
 
When the Windows NT Challenge/Response Authentication is enabled, the premission on the folder and/or file was changed. Make sure that the Users group, especially the IUSER_* have the right permission to read/write/modify the directory of the text file and the text file itself. Also check the security permission of the IIS of the virtual directory.

This what I have in mind now
