permissions issue on object model

Hello,

I'm using the object model to run scripts on top of an ASP.NET 2.0 web application. The web app uses windows integrated security, and impersonation for security purposes because my script will need to copy files to multiple servers.

I have gotten so many permissions errors its unbelievable. I was able to get around some of them simply by giving EVERYONE permission on the folders i am testing with (a solution that will not hold when i move to production).

One of these errors is when i try to do a simple copy of files from my box to another server. Under the impersonation account that my web app runs under, the copy should be no problem at all. I have full access to the folders i am trying to access. in fact, when i access them through convential ASP.NET code, there is absolutely no problem at all.

However, when i run the build script through the API, all these permission problems come about, the one above being "Error creating destination path '\\webdev\DEVLaunchFolder\Websites\RealtyTrac\Test App\': Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password." I did an audit on the destination path and found that its my ASPNET username from my machine that is trying to access that folder, and naturally that is not permitted. This is happening even though i am using impersonation, which is odd. Then i researched a bit and found out that some COM components can not be passed the impersonation tokens if their apartment state is single threaded. So i figured maybe that is what is happing with the visual build pro COM object. Soooo, i went further and created a separate thread that is STA. in that thread, i do impersonation (again!) using LogonUser, and execute the code. SAME ERROR COMES UP. I am lost, and i need help with this. It just doesn't sound correct that Visual Build Pro's API can not execute copies to other servers, something so elemental to the application.

PLEASE HELP

The following is the message i get back when i execute the build script:
