Whatever it's running as on the computer. I assume your Tomcat is
running as a service? If so, look at the service's 'log on as'
information in Admin Tools>Services. My guess is that it's running as
LocalSystem, which means you have all privilages locally but *none* on
the network - this is dangerous for the local system. If you're looking
to create a file elsewhere on the network, I'd create a domain user
account for Tomcat, grant it Log On As A Service on the Tomcat server
and use that.
