Upload folder permissions

Question:

When I try to upload my file(s) I get an error about permissions on the upload folder not being set. I just created a folder on my server. Is there anything special that needs to be done ?

After you have created your folder you need to right click on it and select "sharing & security". Choose the "Security" tab and select the following user : "aspnet_wp account (Computer name\ASPNET)" and give this user read/write rights on the folder. If this user is not in the list, press Add -> Advanced -> Search Now and select the user in this list. Press OK and the user will be selectable for you to change his rights on your download folder.

NOTE: Make sure the also the IUSR_xxx and IWAM_xxx user accounts also have full permissions to this folder.
