I'm trying to figure out a simple problem but I'm stumped. I have an
application that needs to access a .dll that (for security reasons) only
grants permissions to the Administrators group. Since the application pool's
identity is the default "Network Service", I was thinking I'll just
impersonate the "Administra tor" account in my ASP.NET code.
Now, when I check the value of "WindowsIdentit y.GetCurrent(). Name" BEFORE
the identity switch it reports the identity as that of the anonymous
"MACHINE\IUSR_m achine" account. When I check the same value right AFTER the
switch it reports "MACHINE\Admini strator". So the identity switch seems to
be successful.
However, when I try to access the .dll right after that, I get the "Can't
create ActiveX object" error. That's because when I check access to the .dll
with FileMon it reports that it's still trying to access the .dll as the
"Network Service" user!
What am I missing? Why is it using the identoty of the application pool, and
NOT the impersonated identity for access to the .dll?
Thanks for any help!

Hello,
I have some weird problem with the FileSystemWatcher. I have developed
an application that monitors a network directory for file changes of a
certain file type. The program runs well for a week. Then suddenly the
monitored network server starts to behave crazily. It sends to my Sync
Server dozens of replicated file change events. Say one file was
changed two days ago, but the monitored server still keeps sending me
many many...

I have a windows app that has a few Interop assemblies.
If I run it on a machine that doesn't have the required COM libraries, I get
nasty COMExceptions.
What I would like to do is check to see if the required libraries are
registered when first starting my app.
As I couldn't find an easy way to do this, I thought I might just get the
Identities of each of the ActiveX type assembly references using reflection
and look them up in...

I have ASPNET setup as the user in IIS, identity impersonate is true in the

Bellow is a snippet from the ms website about using loadfile on
assemblies that have the same identities.
I beleive this "identity" issue may be the cause of a problem i have
using the alternative Loadfrom option to load the assembly.
Cany anyone explain to me what this "identity" issue is, how it
relates to creating multiple DLL's in c#, and how does it differ in
the use of loadfile and loadfrom

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,...

I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
