Webdav with share located on another computer

Hello,

I use Webdav on W2K3 server with IIS6 and every seems to work when I use
a directory located on the server as resource.

Now I would like to use a share located on another computer but I can't
see anything on webdav client (I see an empty directory and I can't
create anything).

I checked permissions and everything seems to be ok.

Is someone could help me ?

This URL should help you setup access via HTTP or WebDAV of a share
located on another computer.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver20 03/technologies/webapp/iis/remstorg.mspx

What you describe right now is completely by-design. Permissions is
only a part of the total solution.

It's not a bug of ASP.Net nor IIS. "Sharing out" another network
share, either with WebDAV or IIS UNC Vdir, requires proper
configuration of security, and default behavior is to fail because of
improper security configuration.

Basically, it involves the notion of "delegation", which is not easy
for people to understand yet is crucial to security and ease of use.
If you've done things like "single-sign-on" or "access/share out
another network share" but have never heard of delegation, then you
are doing it insecurely and potentially dangerously.

Depending on IIS configuration and your security requirements, it may
or may not be possible. The URL I provided in my prior response
completely answers the issues and solutions to what you want to do.
