access needs to create a ldb file
Just to maintain a certain level of accuracy here, Microsoft Access is not actually involved in any of this process at any stage...
The OP says he's "Using ASP.net 1.1 and Microsoft Access" - clearly, this is a web app so Microsoft Access isn't installed on the server (at least, I hope it isn't!)
What we have here is a Jet database being interfaced through ADO.NET. When a Jet database is opened for shared access, it is the Jet engine which tries to create the locking (*.ldb) database.
The error message which the OP is getting: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file" is the key here.
It is the Jet engine, not Microsoft Access, which is trying to open the Jet database, but it is unable to create the corresponding locking database due to insufficient folder permissions, and so throws the error.
None of this has anything whatsoever to do with Microsoft Access...
