Thanks for the refresher....yes, that is what we did (i.e., the step before the graphic above)
If I remember correctly, we had to make sure we have the correct read/write permission on the folder, although creating above might have set it. We set a clean up mode, but my note said our web guys control that. I can't remember exactly.
This does seem to be working for us. This thread is nice, because we will have to test this all out again soon ourselves, as we hope to move to new servers and 10.5.1 in the next couple weeks. So, I'll know if we are missing a step at that time.
fwiw, if you want to see what happens from a user's perspective, choose one of the "custom map" options
Alaska Hunting Maps by Species, Alaska Department of Fish and Game
and test the print.
edit: btw, if it isn't apparent above, our path is a UNC path. I just blanked the server name.
