Servlet, Tomcat 3.3, IIS virtual directory access denied

Hello people,

I've set up Tomcat to run as a service with a domain log on usr/pswd. IIS
works fine redirecting servlet requests to Tomcat via ISAPI redirector. All
on Windows 2000 Server.

The problem:
The java application creates and reads files from a location which
corresponds to an IIS virtual directory and is also a local directory with
respect to the Tomcat and IIS installation. The application is denied access
to this directory when submitting a network path (\\server/drive/directory/)
where to store and read files, but is happy when a local path is given
instead (E:/) Why? The domain user should have complete access to this. Is
it Tomcat, IIS, or java restrictions?

I appreciate any suggestion on this
Thanks

Thanks for confirming what I found out last night. I noticed that the
virtual directory had web sharing set with some permissions which did not
include tomcat service domain account.

On W2K, by default, the service user doesn't have access to any remote
shared drives.  IMHO, this is a good thing.
