I have 2 servers running win2k, one is a web server and the other is going
to be an archive server. The process would be that a user generates a pdf
report, and then they would choose to archive the report in which the file
would then be copied to the archive directory.

Both servers are running win2k which is currently my test servers and my
live servers will be win2k3. I've setup the archive directory for sharing
and given everyone all permissions except full control. I've setup the
virtual directory within my site using \\<ip>\archive, where the connect as
has been setup using my username/password (I'm a domain admin, this is too
wide open, but I'm just trying to get it to work for now). The site is
using anonymous access. I've even given the archive directory anonymous,
everyone and iusr_machinename sharing and security permission for all
permissions except full control.

The problem that I'm running into is when a user selects save, I create a
FileSystemObject and use the CopyFile function to which I get a permission
denied error.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Barry
