I have permission denied for mkdir and nothing happens when I run cacls. Below is my scenario..... The web site is currently using "Integrated Windows authentication". And I've used: echo ($_SERVER['LOGON_USER']) echo($_SERVER['AUTH_USER']); echo($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']); to display the users in php and they displayed my username for all of the above and I have admin rights. The folders that I want to create subfolders have full control rights for the Domain Admin groups (which I belong to) but it doesn't work. I've even put myself with full control in the folder where I want to make directory. Ppan is an Active Direcoty user. MKDIR RUNNING SCRIPT SCRIPT HOSTED PERMFORMING TASK PERFORMING TASK LOCATION RESULT My local PC Svr_M creating a directory Svr_S Permission denied My local PC Svr_M creating a directory Svr_M OK - directory created My local PC My local PC creating a directory Svr_S OK - directory created Exec(CACLS...) RUNNING SCRIPT SCRIPT HOSTED PERMFORMING TASK PERFORMING TASK LOCATION RESULT My local PC Svr_M exec cacls for user ppan Svr_S (\\Svr_S\CKTest\ppan) nothing happened My local PC Svr_M exec cacls for user ppan Svr_M (\\Svr_M\CKTest\ppan) OK - ppan added with full control My local PC My local PC exec cacls for user ppan My local PC (c:\ppan) OK - ppan added with full control But if the run the mkdir and cacls in the command prompt on Svr_M, it works. Hence I suspect it's the user that IIS uses but it should be using me. Can Mkdir and Exec execute scripts perform tasks across networks? Any suggestions would be very much appreciated - I've already spent days/weeks "googling" and posting discussions on forums - still no joy! Many thanks in advance.
