I found this blog post summed it up http://abelleba.metacarpus.com/?p=4 There's two common probs -- one is the user Apache runs as, which needs to be *not* SYSTEM and have the appropriate persmissions, which it sounds like you do. The other common problem I've seen is that Apache can't find the server by name thanks to NetBIOS/whatever is running under the hood. I'd start by trying to UNC by IP address or by putting the name/ip combo in the local HOSTS file. > #Alias for /Images > Alias /Images "\\\\[myremoteserv]\Images" > <Directory "\\\\[myremoteserv]\Images"> > Options All > AllowOverride All > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > </Directory> > > The Apache server is set to run as a user who does have access rights to > the remote UNC path (verified). I'm just not getting anything. (Apache > 2.0.59) Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated. > > -- > Steve "Cutter" Blades > Adobe Certified Professional > Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Developer > _____________________________ > http://blog.cutterscrossing.com > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:279010 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
