ASP pages run under the authentication of the IUSR_machinename where machinename is the name of your Windows 2000 server. This user is not getting authenticated on the Novell box.

>We have a VFP database that resides on a novell server. When we try to access it using VFP ODBC from ASP we get a message saying file is not found when we try to open it.
>
>the ASP code is as follows:
>
>set conn=server.createobject("adodb.connection")
>conn.open("connODBC") <----- Error appears here (File not found)
>
>where connODBC is the ODBC DSN name that points to the Novell server directory where the .DBC file resides.
>
>This works from inside VFP or if the data resides on an NT server. Would anyone know why this is happening?
