[mapserver-users] Configuring Mapserver in IIS - Anonymous Access?

[Brent Fraser]

You need to ensure you've enabled write permissions on the virtual 
directory (using IIS).  And I think you'll need to confirm the IIS user 
acount (something like IUSR_) can write to the file system folder 
(wherever /mapserver/tmp points to).  Use Windows Explorer, right-click 
on the folder, look at the Security tab, and give the IUSR_  write 
permission.
