  Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact Hello!! I have a problem with acess to my site, i add Network Service to wwwroot and give network service access to read, But not working!? The message: The server is configured to use pass-through authentication with a built-in account to access the specified physical path. However, IIS Manager cannot verify whether the built-in account has access. Make sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the physical path. If this server is joined to a domain, and the application pool identity is NetworkService or LocalSystem, verify that <domain>\<computer_name>$ has Read access to the physical path. Then test these settings again. I don't understan what is wrong?!   I'm newbe on IIS7, i know my website work, ihave runnit on IIS 6.0 and working fine!  Thanks for help!

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact Make sure the computer name Server$ has permissions on the remote path.  When a computer is added to an active directory domain, it's account is name MachineName$ (with a dollar sign at the end  of it).  You can use Windows Explorer to grant Share and NTFS permissions on your physical folder.  When the network services accesses a remote resource, it uses the machine account as the actual account.  Hope that helps.

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact In that case, you'll probably need to look at using a local user account on each system with the same name and password.  When you connect from ServerA to ServerB, which based your description are in a workgroup , having the same user id and password will help get over authentication issues between machines.  Another option would be to look at NULL sessions, which in itself is a security risk. Here is more information on NULL sessions. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/a4939515-b651-4ee0-b327-867b31fd8c9a.mspx?mfr=true I would recommend going the route of using local accounts with the same password.

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact One additional thing that can help identify errors is Process Monitor.  Running this on both machines when accessing is invaluable.  I didn't mention that before.  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx Steve Schofield Windows Server MVP - IIS http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield http://www.IISLogs.com Log archival solution Install, Configure, Forget

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact I'm having the identical problem, on a newly configured Exchange 2007 server, Windows 2008 (64 bit) with OWA. Maybe I'm dense, but I'm having trouble with the idea that a computer account needs to be given permissions on a folder on its own drive? Anyhow, I did it, gave <domain>\<servername>$ read permissions to the folder, and rebooted the server, and am continuing to get the identical problem.  I'm really missing IIS  6

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact The idea of granting a machine account access is to a remote UNC share, not local to itself.  Have you checked over at http://msexchange.org forums to see if anyone else has seen this issue?  I'm not familar with Exchange 2007 on w2k8. http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2007/migration-deployment/installing-exchange-2007-windows-server-2008.html Steve Schofield Windows Server MVP - IIS http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield http://www.IISLogs.com Log archival solution Install, Configure, Forget

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact Does anyone have a solution for this?  In my case there is no remote resource and the app pool's Process Model Identity is simply 'Local Service'.  I've given 'Local Service' Read access to the web application's folder.  It keeps spitting back the same error: "The server is configured to use pass-through authentication with a built-in account to access the specified physical path. However, IIS Manager cannot verify whether the built-in account has access. Make sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the physical path. If this server is joined to a domain, and the application pool identity is NetworkService or LocalSystem, verify that <domain>\<computer_name>$ has Read access to the physical path. Then test these settings again."

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact Just like another posting on this page, I have Exch 2007 on a Win Server 2008 and OWA is not working and I get the following error when testing the OWA accessin IIs: "The server is configured to use pass-through authentication with a built-in account to access the specified physical path. However, IIS Manager cannot verify whether the built-in account has access. Make sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the physical path.

  Re: Cannot verfy access to path Reply Contact I'm getting the same message on Windows SBS 2008 running Exchange 2007. I checked all of the applications that use that particular application pool and they all have the same message w hen yo9u "test connection" under Authentication/Basic Settings. Therefore, if it does not test correctly here, it will not work at runtime. Did anyone else solve this problem? MikeD
