I am trying to access a entry under HKEY_Current_US ER/Software.
In My code it List seven subkeys under there. Actually there are lot
more and the entry i wanted to access in seen in the Registry, but not
listed in my code.
I checked under the HKEY_USERS Key there are many users listed. and
each have a Software entry. The list i get through my ASPCode belongs
to one of the user.
But the entry i a m seeking is under a different User.
So i infered my aspcode is logged as a different user.
When I checked the identity in my code using
System.Security .Principal.Wind owsIdentity.Get Current.Name
I am getting the name as "MD".
When i checked the identity from a Windows application , i am getting
the same name "MD".
But when i access the registry through windows application , i am able
to list
the entry i wanted but thorugh ASPcode it is not showing the Entry?
Can anybody guide?

Hi techmaccoy,
When you run a windows application, it runs with your account's cridentials,
so if you have access to the registry, your application will also have. On
the other hand, ASP.NET is different. What you get with WindowsIdentity is
the current authenticated user's context. On the otherhand, ASP.NET will
assume process identity and the authorization will be done accordingly to
that identity. (which is usually the ASPNET user account.) This means, the
account that the ASP.NET process uses will be forwarded for authorization
requests. Have you tried setting impersonation to true in web.config?

nt services, like asp.net, don't have a user profile, so when they access
the registery, the user hive (HKEY_USERS) is meanless. the user hive is
mapped to the desktop owner's (current interactive user) security context.

Yeah, i understood, when i get the Identity name using the
System.Security .Principal.Wind owsIdentity.Get Current.Name i Am getting
the same User ID as i get from Windows application , but when I access
the registry the entry i am seeking is not listing.
.. I have entered impersonation =true, with the same ID as my Windows
login.
I have unchecked Anonymous Access also in IIS Config.
Is there a way to find from the registry key like
S-1-52-221-14230517432-321942672-3473557-1031 - Map to A User like
that, so that i can try to impersonate as the user under which i can
find the listing in the registry.

As I am reading the .NET documentation, I get the feeling
that Microsoft is trying to get rid of the registry. My
understanding is that an application built using .NET
does not use the registry at all. So, conceivably as
applications are migrated to .NET, the registry could
disappear in a future version of Windows. Does anybody
out there agree with me?
Of course, they might keep the registry for backward
compatibility purposes.
