I am trying to write a file to a network drive from my asp.Net application and i get this error - Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. Any ideas?

I am able to write to a local drive line C:/temp But when I try to save the file to a network drive such as \Server\Folder, I get the error mentioned above.

Any ideas people?
