IIS inetpub folder
|
|
|
| I have a webserver running IIS 6.0. All the sites are stored on a network
share. Can I change the permissions on the Inetpub folder to only allow
admin access? What NTFS permissions do i need to set on the mailroot folder
so that sites can send mail to the queue through cdonts?
Thanx

| The inetpub folder permission ? well, as long as the IIS user has
permissions over it, I don't see any issue. E.g. if it allow anonymous
access, then make sure anonymous account has at least READ permission.
Next, I can understand why you want to put all web files in a share drives,
but for mailroot, I would suggest to leave it on the machine itself.
As for the permission, again the user need to have CHANGE permission. Refer
the following KB, it shows the permissions needed.
