Accessing files and folders on remote server - SERVER ERROR

[phil.stollery]

Hi,

I've currently setup a local user as described in:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetsec/html/SecNetHT01.asp

This users has been created on the remote server, and locally on our
web farm servers. All access to NTFS file system has been setup and the
users local privileges. However, when I add the

<identity impersonate="true" userName="YourAccount"
password="YourStrongPassword" />

Code in the web.config file, the website starts behaving in an
unpredictable manner - mainly blowing up with the following error:

Server Error in '/admin' Application.

If I remove the impersonation - the site works fine, apart from the
fact I can't read/write to the remote server. I have googled till I'm
blind, anyone any ideas?
