Good Day Folks,

We are trying to configure the following:
- 3 node IIS 6 (Windows 2003 WEB) servers using an Alteon swithc for the
load balancing.
- 2 Node Windows Server 2003 R2 file cluster for the data share.

I can get everything to work correctly when storing the data locally on the
3 IIS servers. We use anonymous access for them. Thsi account is a domain
account that has been given the proper access.

the problem happens when we move the data to the Cluster via a UNC Path.
Althogh we can still access the site anonymously, when we try to secure one
folder by removing the anonymous access and providing a different domain
account we are unable to log in. and get an error (See bellow the SNIP line).

I have read all I can find on this but nothing seems to work.

To re-iterate, we can access the website through IIS with the data on the
UNC share via the anonymous account. When we try to secure one of the folders
on the path, we get the error.

Thank you all for your time.
