On trying to upload a file, I get the error message below, even though I've
allowed uploads to the _private directory in FrontPage.

However I can't select the security tab in Explorer properties (as suggested
below) because there isn't one. Any ideas on how I can enable write access
gratefully received.

I'm using XP Professional on a standalone PC.


Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path
"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\demo\_private\j0239185.wmf" is denied.

The ASP.NET process is not authorized to access the requested resource. For
security reasons the default ASP.NET process identity is
'{machinename}\ASPNET', which has limited privileges. Consider granting
access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET process identity.

To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer,
choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the
"{machinename}\ASPNET" user. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the
Write box in the Allow column.

Don't use the _private folder as the FP extensions control the permissions on it. Create another
folder and then assign whatever permissions you need via NTFS, etc.
