File System Object - not deleting file

[Lise]

I am using the File System Object to create server side cookies and part of
the Function that I am writing deletes a file but I am getting a permissions
denied error on that line of code.

I am using Integrated security only on this site but how do I get the
IUSER_Machinena me account to work with Integrated Security?

Not entirely sure what a 'Server side cookie' is however I doubt that's
relevant[color=blue]

You can't IUSR_MachineNam e is the used to create a security token under
which the request runs when accessed anonymously. When using integrated
security the account provided by the client is used to generate the security
context.

Can you not give Domain Users the appropriate access to the file or the
folder where it resides?

Hi Anthony .. Thanks for the reply ..

I have given "Everyone" Full control on that directory and even tried the
parent directory as well.
I'm thinking that since I'm using the FSO to create the text file, it's
being created by the IUSER_account (even though I'm using integrated
security) .. and then it's trying to delete the file as the domain user
accesing the page .. and maybe something isn't working properly there??

I strongly recommend undoing that...

You have to pick IUSR_machineNam e explicitly when applying permissions.
This account is not automatically included in "Everyone" IIRC.

www.winternals.com has some great file access monitoring tools that will
help you figure out what user(s) is trying to delete the file, then we can
all stop guessing.
