SYSTEM account, as that is what CF is trying to use.

Subject: Problem with CFFILE over network
Hi.
My brain is fried... was working on this all night. I am not into
networking..
A friend has a network set up using a windows 2000 domain controller
to control the entire network, except for 1 stand alone computer that is
not part of the domain. As I said - it is my friend's network. I have no
idea why they set it up like this.
The problem.. they have cfmx6.1 running on a webserver, and we need to
use cffile to place a file on that stand-alone computer.
When we try, we get a java error that says we don't have permission to
complete the operation.
I set up a new user on that stand alone computer, with administrator
access and shared the drive we need to use.
I set up a mapping to a drive letter on the webserver using the "log on
as" function to log in as that administrator account on the stand alone
computer.
The CFMX service is being run under a user account with administrator
rights.. When I log into the webserver using that account, Using windows
explorer, I can write to that drive letter, but CF can't write to it.
I also tried using the UNC format, and that works from an explorer window
but not from CFFILE
When I tested the situation on my home network (using CFFILE to write
to a difference computer), which is all just peer to peer, it works with no
problem.
The only service running under that administrator account is CFMX
aplication server. the other CF services(ODBC agent and server, and the
IIS service) are under local system. Would it help to change them all to
a user account?
I tried creating the file with CFFILE on the local computer and running
a batch file to copy it to the other computer. It works if I run the batch
file directly, but if I run the batch file using cfexecute, it doesn't work.
I am stuck.. any ideas? Right now I am thinking to just schedule that
batch file every minute to copy any files that get dropped into the
webserver's directory and copy it to the other computer.. but there has to
be a more elegant way!
I checked the archives, and this problem seems to have come up before,
but never seems to get resolved.. I am thinking it has to be some type of
security problem... but where do I go to correct it?
