  Cannot verify access to path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ Reply Contact  Hello, When creating a web site I clicked "Test Settings" and: 1. It passed Authentication 2. It didn't pass Authorization. I get the following error:  "Cannot verify access to path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\" 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." What is wrong? How can I solve this problem? Thanks, Miguel

Regards, Please does anyone have an elaborate answer to this problem? I have the same problem and I cannot test my websites which are created in the wwwroot directory. If the problem cannot be ignored what are the alternative solutions to this problem? Best regards
