How to Setup IIS 7.5 Website Physical Path to a Network Share?

When I point the physical path to a network share and try to access the page, I get the following error:

Answer 1

The account which IIS is running under needs to have the appropriate permissions to access the file share on \192.168.0.250. If you are part of a domain you need to have a domain account to use as the service account so that IIS has permission to access the share.

This has been discussed on the IIS.net forums.
