How Set DB Directory Permissions To Allow Write?
I previously used PWS on Win 98. Nothing special had to be done locally for a directory that contained an Access database.
But on the Web host I had to do this:
Access Permissions | [Go to proper folder] | Anonymous account given permission of Change
Now I've just gotten a PC with Win XP Pro and have just installed IIS. My development Web sites work fine locally except whenever the ASP page tries to write data to the database, then there is an error message at the line that first tries to write data.
What can I do to modify my settings?
I read something about NTFS, but my PC's drive is not set up with that. Is NTFS something that I need or is there hopefully another solution?

we're working on a cms system that allows the admin to upload files to the server - the host (supplied by the client) says that opening write permissions means that windows is open to exploits.
we're using FSO to move the file anyone know a way of locking down this so its not 'open to exploits' ?

In Windows 2000 I need permissions set so that I can write a text file to the folder when the asp page is loaded. Right now I have only these permissions set:
Administrator: Full
System: Full
Everyone: Read and Execute, List, Read
Network: Read and Execute. List. Read
Is there some other "user" that I can give permissions to to write a text file to the folder that doesn't allow write permissions to IUSER_MachineName?

ive set the permissions to the folder which the text file is in to 'Write' and 'Read', but i still continue to get:
[/CODE]
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'
Permission denied
/modules/admin/program.asp, line 197
[/CODE]
all the path leading to the file is set to allow write aswell.... any ideas why this might be happening?

I have a form mail script that sends an email and then writes to a text file using Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").
The problem I am having is that the information needs to be saved in a Password Protected Directory. When I try to save the info it gives me a permission denied error.
I had my hosting company change the permission on the directory and the script was working ok but now it isn't.
Is there a way to pass the username and password in the script so I don't have to worry about the hosting company messing this up?

I have written a script to update user information in the Active Directory using ADSI. Here is part of it:
Set User = GetObject("LDAP://<GUID=" & GUID & ">")
User.Department = DepartmentName
User.SetInfo
Set User = Nothing
This works fine unless DepartmentName is an empty string ("").
Then I get error 0x8007200B: "The attribute syntax specified to the directory service is invalid."
This happens with all the attributes I have tried, including TelephoneNumber
.
Do I need to delete the value of the attribute instead of setting it to an empty string? If so, how do I do it?

I have a compiled activex dll component on my server. When I log into the website under the administrator I can successfully access the dll, however using another windows NT user simply shows 'unable to create component due to permission'.I have ensured that the user in question has all writes to the dll file on the server, including the IUSR and IWAM accounts.

Does anyone know of an asp script, online somewhere, that I can use to find
out the permissions of a folder? My ISP says these folders have full
permissions, but my programs say "permission denied". I don't know if it is
the programming, or if the folder don't really have the right permissions.

I know this isn't the best group to ask this in - but I also know a lot of
you have experience with this kind of stuff
I'm going to be creating a site where customers will be able to set up their
own sub-site (ie. www.mysite.com/theirsubsite). I'll need to be able to
create virtual directories on-the-fly, so I plan on using ADSI to accomplish
this. My question is - what are my options when it comes to permissions?
Will I need to give the IUSR account admin permissions to create these
directories, or is there some way to impersonate an admin account on the
script creating the directories? Has anyone dealt with this before?

How do I setup perrmissions in my FTP to allow anonymous access where you can only upload to and download from a separate folder but not create sub folders or change any permissions etc.
I have my trusted users with extended permission in like c:ftproot ame1, c:ftproot ame2 etc and would like to have my anonymous access directed to something like c:anonymous. I do not want them to see the trusted accounts. Can I and how do I do that?

I have a mixure of .htm / .html / .asp files on an IIS Server at our main office. When people at another location goto the web they can view the .htm,.html files but can't access the .asp because of permissions.
Now i've checked the permissions on the individual files and the two file types have the same permission settings. Is there something in the ASP platform that adds extra permissions to .asp files. (Active Directory wise).

I have a asp page that I need to check to see if the current logged on user is a member of a specific active directory group. How can I do this? I have tried so many different LDAP code examples and none seem to work.
Do I need to include a administrator username and password in the code? Does any have any samples of code I can try?

i created an asp script that calls wscript which in turn calls up an .bat file. I have tested this script on my machine on my home win2k3 machine but cannot reproduce the same thing on my other server. Right now, IIS requres "intergrated windows authentication" login and run the script.
I ve given the user account every possible permission combo i thought of. The script in question has permissiont to run, it even has admin priviledges for testing purposes. But nothing happens when i run it from my page. I am completly stuck right now. No idea how to persue this b/c ive exhuasted every possible thing i know and every tip i read about.

I can load the webpage into the frame and write to the frame on my local test page.
However, on the remote page I get this error from FireBug:

I have been successfully running ASP on a W2K IIS5.0 server using Anon
Access enabled, but would like to be able to restrict access to a particular
folder containing some ASP content to a particular NTFS user group that I
have set
up.
I have added this group to the particular folder (giving Full Control) and
switched off anon access and added Intergrated Windows authentication in IIS
Admin. The problem is that although users can access static content in this
folder, any attempt to run an ASP fails with a logon box appearing and
"Error: access denied" apearing in the page.
Is the problem that this user group does not have permissions on the system
files used to execute the ASPs? Everything works fine under my admin
account or if I make it all Anonymous access.

I am using winXP pro + IIS5.1 to develop my site offline.
My data is in a folder outside the web, and I am told "my IUSR account needs
to have read/write/modify NTFS permissions to the directory housing the
file"
I can find no info on how actually to do this. Can anyone explain?
