IIS and Samba

Hello, 

I have samba running on SunOS 5.8 Generic sun4u sparc
SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine and I'm connecting
to it using IIS 5 and windows 2000 or NT. The problem is that IIS can't
execute the test.htm page
within that directory but, I can do this fine with apache. 

I can connect using >net use //myserver. I can also browse using IIS and it
does show me the
directories within http://myserver/virtualdirectory/ when I try to run
http://myserver/virtualdirectory/test.htm
I get an IIS "The page cannot be found" error. 

If I browse to the file using \\server\filesource\test.htm on the Solaris
server I can open the file. I'm
thinking that this is an IIS problem with the IUSR_ account and samba. 

Any help on this or pointers would be great! 

I have the following settings in my smb.conf

[global]
  workgroup = xxx
  preserve case = yes
  case sensitive = yes
  encrypt passwords = yes
  security = server
  password server = xxxx.com
  wins server = 10.1.xxx.xxx
  wins support = no
  guest account = guest
  max log size = 5000

  domain master = no
  local master = no
  preferred master = no
  os level = 25

[root]
  path = /
  guest ok = yes
  read only = no

Thanks in advance, 
- Kurt.
