Hello,

Are you saying that you mapped a drive, and that is the shared folder? If
so, that will not work. IIS runs as a webservice, and the drive that is
mapped when you logon, will IIS not recognize. You need to use an UNC path.

For authentication, please see:

"How to Enable Pass-through Authentication for UNC Virtual Directories"
