Re: Copy file from another server to local server

I should be clearer: I'm running Win2K. I tried changing the Anonymous User
Account (under Directory Security) for the virtual directory the web service
is located in to the Domain Admin account, and it still doesn't work. Am I
looking in the wrong place?

the web service account (app pool on 2003) should be a domain account with
network permissions. the local system account does not have network
access.

Hi,

I'm writing a web service, and, as part of its function, I want it to
copy a file from a remote server and place that file on the local web
server under another name. However, I always get Access Denied, whatever
I try. I even tried making the Anonymous user for the web service the
system administrator (with the correct password), to no avail. I also
tried sharing out the folder I'm pulling files from to allow access from
Everyone. Can I use UNC paths at all? When I try mapping a drive to
that folder, it tells me Could not find a part of the path
"N:\test.txt" - presumably it doesn't find that drive mapping.

Any tips or guidance would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Jim
