If the script is being run by IIS then it is running in context of
one of the IIS i*_machine accounts if the browsing user is
anonymous to IIS. If IIS is on server outside of domain where
the UNC accessed share is then the IIS cannot authenticate to
that sharing server. If that is the case, you either must enable
guest and grant guest the needed share and ntfs permissions for
the share, or you need to allow anonymous (you seem to be
overlooking the allowed anonymous shares security policy in
group policy's security options section).
