Just to check with you all, is it possible for IIS to map a server drive to network folder? i wanted to try this, but will other users who are sharing these drives be able to view the results on their own desktops when browsing through the intranet provided by the server?

This intranet website i created consist of a simple search engine that i need to search through the server drive! i always get an error saying the drive is a physically mapped path instead of a virtually mapped path when i do previewing of my codes as a user to this server!

i am given rights to view the folder in this server drive, can i just use IIS to map this drive to the web folder on my computer? or do i have to do it on the server side? i got no idea and cant proceed for a week already...

If IIS is used on my computer to map the drive to the webfolder, will other users be able to search through the drive without mapping the drive to the web folder on their own computers?

i'm a beginner, hoping to learn more.. please help... thanks a lot

Hey man I've replied to this in the VBScript forum. Please don't post the same question in different forums, otherwise the replies get fragmented and people trying to follow it have to jump around a lot - makes it v frustrating.
