Permissions foor newly created files

[Rik Hoeflaak]

Hi there,

I'm struggling with this problem: in a website I
developed, XML files are created by users of the site to
describe. The creation is OK, the (new) file is present,
but it can not be read by any website visitor.

How can the default permission become at least readable?

It's a ASP script running on W2K, using the
FileSystemObject component.

Thanks in advance!

Rik

If you were to set the permissions on the directory they were being created
in to propagate to sub directories and files, and include the IUSR_<computer
name> account on that directory that should be enough.
