How to grant permissions to Network Service to write in a remote location
I need to grant permissions to the Network Service account to write on a different machine on the same network. Can you tell me which permissions I should add?
Thanks!
EDIT
From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx
Services that run as the Network Service account access network resources by using the credentials of the computer account
Grant rights to the remote resources to the computer account; this will allow for NETWORK SERVICE to access the resources.
Note that for this to work, the systems must be in a domain.
When granting permissions, Computer accounts aren’t searched by default. You’ll need to change your search scope in the permission granting dialog:

Then select the computer that the NETWORK SERVICE is running as.
