iis security: Hi guys
I need help. I created a web application for my intranet. I'm using a
dsn connection. The applications works fine when the database resides in the
same server as the IIS. when I change the dns to point to the same mdb file
over to my database server I get the following error

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC
Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the
file '(unknown)'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you
need permission to view its data.

I know I set the permissions correctly b/c it was working while I had the
dsn connection pointing to the file in same server as the IIS.

Please help. Thank you in advance.
