I've written a simple ASP .NET web application that reads a text file and
displays it in the web browser. Works fine when reading a local path; but
fails with "can not find a part of the path", or "can not access network
file" when attemting to access a UNC network path. I am using IIS 6.0 on
Server 2003. SharePoint Portal Server is also installed on this server. I
have granted full access to 'everyone' on the network file. An equivalent
.NET desktop application reads the file fine.

This seems like a trival task. What am I missing?
