    Create the dsn on the web server which will point to the database 

server.The web server should have network connectivity to the database 

server.

If the IIS machine isn't a Windows Domain Controller, then the default

anonymous internet user account (IUSR_<machinename>) is a local account and

doesn't have permission to remote resources (eg an Access database located

on a file share on another machine.



Probably the quickest way to get this to work would be to change the

anonymous internet user account to be a domain account. Give this domain

account appropriate permissions to the remote access database (eg the file

share).



In the DSN use UNC paths to reference the remote share since using mapped

drive letters are only mapped for the logged on user, not all users.
