Hi All,

I am using FORM BASED authentication for my web based application. It's
running under ASPNET account on win2k server and NetworkService on win2k3
server.

My application needs to save a file on my network shared drive.

Can I use impersonation if I am NOT using windows authentication? It seems
not to work with form based authentication.

What are the necessary steps to enable the network shared drive access?

Thanks a lot,

Yehuda Vernik
