Bill,

You will need to add ASPNET as a domain user or use impersonation. It is failing because ASPNET is not a valid user on the domain to get access to the folder.

I am testing this running ASP.NET on my local machine so the application is running under the local ASPNET account. I would expect the call to the server to be made under that local ASPNET account and I suspect this is causing the problem but I'm not sure of the corrective action to take since the target folder has permissions given to the Everyone account.
