permission denied

[Jean-Paul Lauque]

Hello,

With my script ASP, I display list of folders and files in a directory.

My problem is :

when the directory is protected, I have a message an error page with
"permission denied" message
when my ASP script try to read its content.


My questions are :

How can i read the content ?
Or How Can I get permission ?

Thank you for your answers.

Bye

JP

it's folder level permissions. Change them in windows

I know.

But I don't want that all the world read the content of directory.

So, i would like to know if i must manage permission with ASP script
or not.

Thank you

JP

well, you will have to turn off anonymous access in IIS then, to make the
user login.
Then just set the user permissions based on that.

Can't you just give the system access ... then would have to use asp
to see?

"All the world" still has to have permission to get on the machine to use
that power. A lot of people assume that giving "Everyone" access is the
solution here. Giving access to IUSR only gives access to IUSR, and that's
all ASP needs in order to read/write text files/MDB files. And if someone
can guess your IUSR password and log onto the machine as them, well, all the
power to them. They don't have to be an elevated user, in fact they don't
even have to have the ability to log on or do anything else that would
expose your system to any risk. They just have to be able to read and write
whatever folder you're trying to use with FSO.

Give the anonymous internet account (default is IUSR_<machine>) access to
the directory
