asp.net worker process user

I see on my XP machine the aspnet_wp.exe is running as ASPNET user.
However, on one of the W2k3 machine, w3wp.exe is running as System. Wasn't
it supposed to run under NETWORK SERVICE user? Do you suppose someone had
changed the default behavior?

Check your machine.config file, in the ProcessModel section.

Thanks. I found machine in the machine.config and according to the sdk doc,
IIS 6 settings are used and processModel element is ignored when running in
Native mode(BTW, what is native mode and how would I know?).
And I found in IIS 6 config, the application pool was set to run as System.
No idea why. The default website was set to Network Service though.

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know a valid and compete reference paper about what the “Worker Process” precisely is and does? So far I couldn’t find any. Reason is that during last weeks I had to go deep down into SharePoint security, and the related identities. Which, by the way, as I realized, are at least two: the Log on “real” one, and the Application Pool “ghost” one; under which, indeed, the “Worker Process” is said to operate:...

Hello All, In IIS 6.0 We have a concept of worker processes and application pools. As I understand it, we can have multiple worker process per appliction pool. Each worker process is dedicated to a pool. If I assign only one application to a applicaton pool and have multiple worker processes assigned to that pool. Will my application be processed by many worker processes?

Hi there, I've got a web app that uses impersonation and makes calls to a SQL Server backend. I'd like to be able to automate the setting of database security for the web app upon deployment. What I'd like to do during installation is the following: - run the database creation script - determine the user context that the ASP.NET worker process is running under - assign privileges for that user in the new database

Hello All, I have a question about worker processes and session state. If I set-up a web farm architecture by having multiple worker processes serving a single application, how will the session state be affected? For example, let's consider that a user A requested for page A and after some time the same user requests page B. In both these cases, will a new Session ID be created?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
