ASP - upload and store files to a network drive

Examples

You can store uploaded files also to a network disk or network resource. The main problem within this task are user rights. The default user account running ASP script (usually IUSR_COMPUTERNAME) has no access to network resources. One of the way is to connect to a network resource with another Username and Password (using AddConnection), store uploaded files and Disconnect from the resource (CancelConnection). This is a sample VBScript concept of the task. See upload-network.asp sample for full code.
