Cloning ASPNET account

Hi All,

I wish to clone ASPNET account and my web app will impersonate to this
account. I don't wish to remove the ASPNET account away because some other
applications are utilizing this ASPNET account.

The reason behind cloning the ASPNET account is my app utilizing a lot
of network resources and remote OLAP database that requires extra
permissions. I'll grant this domain account extra permissions to accomplish
these tasks.

I googled and found a lot of articles stating how to create a custom
account but those articles require me to change the machine.config which I
do not wish to do.

I'm using IIS6 and the impersonate account is a Domain Account. Any
advice?

Hi Joel:

In IIS6 you can put your ASP.NET application in it's own application
pool, and give this pool the identity of the custom account.

Hi, I am trying to install a web application on an AD domain controller (security risk I know but it is our client's requirement) and i need to give the aspnet account certain permissions. However, the account is not listed in AD users and computers snap-in, though I can see IWAM and IUSR. Where is this account? I have installed the .net framework and re-registered it, but it still ain't there. Any ideas??? Thanks Jano

Hi, I'm running ClrProfiler for the first time to profile my web app, and it keeps getting stuck at this msg box: "Waiting for Asp.net to start common language runtime - this is the time to load your test page." even after I launched my app and aspnet_wp.exe is running. Do you know what I need to do to fix it? I also found some old post, a person mentioned that I need to make sure I need to run my aspnet with system account instead. ...

I created a walkthrough and couldn't connect to my sql server. I looked up the problem and MSDN told me to create an ASPNET "User" in SQL Svr. It worked, but is that right? Do I have to do that for web projects. How does that user relate to the other users? I'm not seeing the logic. I thought maybe a "Role" that I could assign all users to would make more sense, but why have an ASPNET in SQL at all? -- MichaelM

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,...
