HI!!!
i need some help in my zenphoto installation, the scenario is:

Zenphoto 1.2.8 + IIS 7.0 (Windows Server 2003 R2) + DFS

The IIS server uses DFS for replicate some directories with photograph thar are on another two servers, the dfs service create a directory (F:\directory\DfsrPrivate) with hidden and system atribute, but Zenphoto read it, and show this error:

Warning: opendir(F:/directory/DfsrPrivate/) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: Invalid argument in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\zenphoto\zp-core\class-album.php on line 1264

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\zenphoto\zp-core\class-album.php on line 1268

Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\zenphoto\zp-core\class-album.php on line 1281

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\zenphoto\zp-core\class-album.php:1264) in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\zenphoto\themes\default\album.php on line 2

The DfsrPrivate directory cant be changed to another path.

In ZenPhoto i cant delete this album or unpublish, the permission of the DFS directory are:

System (full grant)
MACHINE\Administrator (full grant)

How is it possible that Zenphoto read the directory? Can i "exclude" this directory?

In the zp-config.php the values of the album is:

$conf['album_folder'] = 'F:/directory/';
$conf['album_folder_class'] = 'external';

Anyone have some idea for this issue?

Thank!!!!!

P.D: sorry for my bad english.

I think this is a permissions problem and not a zenphoto issue.

You might want to try opening the permissions to `Everyone` on the host machine and then backing them out to get what you need. Most likely, the user that will need further permissions is the IIS default user (`IUSR_<machinename>`).

I'm not too keen on Windows permissions so you may have to play around with it a bit yourself to find what you need.
