| Connecting/Importing from a remote csv file using UNC connection.Hi,I created a DTS package with a connection similar to this example:*fake IPFILE: \\10.15.1.201\c$\websites\localuser\sitename\foldername\filename.csvThe package is on our SQL Server Box and the file is on a different Box...our web server.If I run the DTS package manually it works fine, the records are imported.When I schedule the package to run automatically it fails on step one which is the connection.Any clues as to why this is happening?Thanks!Mitch |

| Yes. The account for SQL Server does not have authorization or permission to access the file.Peter LarssonHelsingborg, Sweden |

| Peter,Sorry for the delayed response...thanks for the info.I decided that I did not want to mess with the security settings so I just setup the DTS to FTP IN the file, import it then delete the file from the local and remote computer.Mitch |
