Write permissions using Scripting.TextStream object

inetserver asp general: In Windows 2000 I need permissions set so that I can write a text file =
to the folder when the asp page is loaded. Right now I have only these =
permissions set:

Administrator: Full
System: Full
Everyone: Read and Execute, List, Read
Network: Read and Execute. List. Read

Is there some other "user" that I can give permissions to to write a =
text file to the folder that doesn't allow write permissions to =
IUSER_MachineName? Thanks.

You've lost me. Unless your site/application is set up for Windows Auth,
ASP runs as IUSR_MachineName, so what other user would you expect ASP to
impersonate in order to write to this folder?

Well I have many different users on the server; Interactive; Network; =
Authenticated Users; BATCH; Proxy; Restricted; Self; Service; ... many =
more. I was hoping that some other one of these I could use. If not no =
big deal. I can allow just Read and Write anywhere so I may just do =
that.

You could use any one of them that you want if those groups have
permissions. Just give your IUSR permissions though instead of trying to
jump through extra steps and using group membership for NTFS permissions
when you only need this one single user to have permissions.
