Web service running on IIS cant access password protected folder on Linux machine
<p>I am running a Web Service on a Windows XP pc and my goal is this service to access a folder located in the network (Samba Server) on a Linux machine.</p>

<p>The error that I am getting from the browser is  "path format is not valid".</p>

<p>This means that IIS can't recognize  the path at all.</p>

<p>My question is, whether this is a problem due to the password protection of the folder or  is it a compatibility issue between IIS and Linux?</p>

<p>Is there anything I can do to fix it?</p>

<p>Thank you</p>
