Hello, I host websites using windows 2000 and IIS 5. I have a website I am trying to put a snitz forum on and during the setup.asp process, I create an username and password and then I get a message stating I need to create tables.. Click here to create tables. I click that and get a "Please wait until setup is complete" with 13 critical errors. I searched the forum and this is the closest I found for an answer/help:

That is a permission problem. You need read/write permissions on the database AND the directory it's stored in.

Now, I know for a fact that I set read/write permissions on the folders that the .mdb file exists on in IIS, by right clicking on the folders and choosing just read/write. I even tried it with access scripting source checked. Nadda. Still not working. The site would be : www.sitename/forum/ and the access file would be 3 subfolders deep within that domainname root.
Did you set the NTFS permissions on the database so that the IUSR_machinename account has read/write permissions ... NTFS permissions are different than IIS permissions.
Thanks guys. I didn't realize the Iuser_servername was renamed to Internet Guest account. Once I figured that out, I added the write attribute to the permissions and restarted my services. All works fine now.
The problem I am having now is changing the default catagory from Snitz Forums 2000 to a name of my choosing.
Oh, anyone know how I can get and add the asp script that counts the current/most users on snizt's forum's home page: Active Users: 59 Visits Today: 72 Highest Active Users: 331
