65? That's a lot of sites on one box :-) I believe that IIS runs in the system context - perhaps change the service to run as an account with permission to the share? (I'm assuming that by "IIS User" you mean the iusr* account, which isn't the account that the service runs as, and probably isn't the user than NT sees when performing tasks like logging)

Any tips, tricks, or snafu's you could share would be greatly appreciated. When I set it up I get "IIS Logging was unable to create the directory H:\W3SVC65. The data is the error." I have set set permissions for the Admin user and the IIS user to have full control of that mapped drive. No go. Thanks in advance.
