You'd think that running scripts from a network share wouldn't be all that
different from pulling static files, but, it is. Recall that the NT
LocalSystem metauser under which IIS runs is not allowed to access network
stuff for security reasons. Therefore for IIS to get to network stuff it
has to use the username/pw you specify under the Directory Security tab in
the IIS.MMC for the site (button called Anonymous Access I think).
However, the ISAPI for PHP4 is not mature and performing advanced features
like accessing network resources would require TIGHT integration with IIS.
Consider switching to CGI instead of ISAPI.
So basically, you can't do what you want to do, yet -- Not with PHP running
under IIS. I may be wrong, so check the bug database at www.php.net to
ensure that network shares access under the IIS sapi is indeed a limitation
at this time.
But, an old proverb of mine is:
"If you run on the cutting edge, you're gonna bleed."
Best of luck.
