I don't know if this would work, but...
Add the share on your data server to the website as a virtual directory.  Then, add your web server's computer account or the IIS account with the access that the app needs to your data servers share.  I'm not sure which would be needed to work.
You could then use whatever your accounting mechanism is on the web server to control access to the share.

No, the provisioning application needs to be able to create a folder and a file within that folder and assign rights.
 
It can't be a part of the domain (our policy is that shared hosting servers (excepting our Exchange hosting servers, which have their own domain) are standalone).
 
Thanks for the thought.

So really the rights you need are the ability to open a file on a file share you have rights to?  Is it possible to make it part of the domain? You could use the machine account or the IIS account then.  If not, then the trick here is to allow file system access to the application (the user-context of the application really).
 
Would that work?

I have a provisioning application that runs on a domain member that needs administrative access to a standalone server.

Credentials other than the ones that IIS is running under?
 
Personally, I haven't seen a way to do that and wonder why you would want to do it that way?

Is there any way to create a FileSystemObject with alternate credentials, similar to what I can do with OpenDSObject for an ASP web page?
 
Thanks,
