App can't write to EventLog in Windows Server 2003

I have an app that writes to a custom event log (which is
created at install time with a custom installer DLL). My app
writes just fine to this custom log when running on Windows
2000 Server but when I try to run it on Windows 2003 Server I
get "Access denied" errors.

I'm using impersonation in my app and if I log in with a
user account that is in the "Domain Admins" groups it will
work on 2003 as well.

What permissions do I need to modify to allow "Domain Users"
to be able to write to the EventLog from ASP.NET? Adding all
users to the "Domain Admins" group is not an option.

THanks...Scott

Hi, I have an ASP.Net application written with VS.Net 2002 (Net FWK 1.0). This Web Application uses Exception Management Application Block to log Events to Windows Event Log. We registered the Exception Management Application Block using installutil. Our Application uses impersonation and used to work fine on Windows 2000 Server. Now we installed it on a Windows Server 2003 and when an exception is raised, we get an "Access is denied"...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
