try granting ntfs permissions on the objects in question to the account if it's a domain account.  what? it's not a domain account?  friend, they're *all* domain accounts, in a workgroup configuration, each individual box is a 'domain' and has it's own user accounts.  when you examine the nt4.0 server from a win2k machine, be careful when examining ntfs rights...   win2k examines and applies permissions differently.

Subject: [IMail Forum] IMail and CF Help

One of my programmers is trying to write a Cold Fusion program to assist in maintaining email list addresses. This program will enable users to maintain the addresses for their own lists by displaying and permitting the modification of the users.lst file. The problem we're having is that CF doesn't have rights to the users.lst files on Server2 where IMail is installed. CF is installed on Server1. The CF service is running under the system account. Both servers are NT 4.0.
 
Is there a way that I can setup the NT servers so that the CF service on Server1 has read/write access to certain files on Server2 without changing the account under which the CF service operates??
 
If I have to change the CF service account, what pitfalls should I be aware of??
 
Thanks.
