Hi All,

I have problem to accessing FoxPro database, located on Novell file server,
over the VFPOLEDB.1 provider from my webservice. The connection string is
like "Data
Source=\\Skuba_srv\DATA\SKUBA.DOS\L-DISKAS\Work\Pvskuba\DATA;Provider=VFPOLE
DB.1"

The Err message:

System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Invalid path or file name. at
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.ProcessResults(Int32 hr) at
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.InitializeProvider() at
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.Open() at ws.Service.GetCnnString() in
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ws\Service.asmx.vb:line 81

I think the problem is in some windows account rights. By default "ASP.NET
State Service" logs on as Local System Account, but this account dose not
have rights on Novell. I have windows account that has granted access to
database located on Novell. I tried to start ASP.NET State Service on this
account but problem persists.
Maybe similar configuration is needed for other services?

Any suggestion?
