IIS and Folder permissions

[Guest Teo]

Hey guys,

I just got my Dell Server a few days ago with Windows Small Business Server

2003.

I went into Internet Information Services and created my website. After that

I mapped the wwwroot folder on my Vista machine using the administrator

credentials on the server.

Now I am trying to create folders inside the wwwroot folder to store images

and do other stuff but Windows doesn't let me. I went into the website

properties and selected the boxes for Read, Write, etc. All of them are

selected but for some reason it still doesn't let me.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Teo

Teo,

 

You want to keep things that you are serving on your server. Running a web

site from a share is unreliable and generally a bad idea.
