Thank you Tom.

I know that the username I specified in IIS Manager must exist on the remote
server (server that shares the folder),
but I don't see any document says on local server (server running IIS) there
must exist a user with the username and password I specified.
Maybe I misunderstand you answer, or you misread my statement.

Can you show me the link of the document?
I've checked the following:

If memory doesn't fail me, if you work with IIS and protect the source pages of the application so that IUSR_xxxxx doesn't have access to those files and instead grant access to the NT users or groups which you want, the IIS when working with IE clients will take care of that as long as they are all in the same domain. ...
