Re: Writing to Mapped Drive : Permission Denied

Paul, Your problem is related to the permissions of the IIS service, which is supposed to run with user IUSR_*** (don't remember the exact name) on NT/2000. When PHP tries to access a resource it must be accessible to this account. You have to check permissions on the network drive for this user. Also, I suppose that it is a local user to the system on which IIS runs. Hope it helps.
