IIS and Folder permissions

[Teo]

Hey guys,
I just got my Dell Server a few days ago with Windows Small Business Server
2003.
I went into Internet Information Services and created my website. After that
I mapped the wwwroot folder on my Vista machine using the administrator
credentials on the server.
Now I am trying to create folders inside the wwwroot folder to store images
and do other stuff but Windows doesn't let me. I went into the website
properties and selected the boxes for Read, Write, etc. All of them are
selected but for some reason it still doesn't let me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Teo

Teo,

You want to keep things that you are serving on your server. Running a web
site from a share is unreliable and generally a bad idea.
