I am running a Web Service on a Windows XP pc and my goal is this service to access a folder located in the network (Samba Server) on a Linux machine.
The error that I am getting from the browser is “path format is not valid”.
This means that IIS can’t recognize the path at all.
My question is, whether this is a problem due to the password protection of the folder or is it a compatibility issue between IIS and Linux?
Is there anything I can do to fix it?
Thank you
I assume you granted access to the Samba share to some user ID – but which user ID?
The user under which an ASP.NET application runs is likely a machine account. Check your IIS settings for the name of that account.
