Hi,

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 Intranet app that works fine on a test server
running on Win2003 Server with IIS 6.0. However, it fails when I port
it over to the production server running on the same OS. I compared
all the configurations and everything matches. I then re-run the
aspnet_regiis; I even granted "NT AUTHORITY\NETWO RK SERVICE" full
access to aspnet_Membersh ip and aspnet_Roles. I don't know why the
app uses a local user account instead of the "NT AUTHORITY\NETWO RK
SERVICE" account. Please help me.

Thanks,
Jonathan Kha

Hi Jonathan

the problem is in the database and not in the ASP.NET. Go to the
database and check if windows authentication is allowed and the aspnet
account is in the user list. You can also create a new database
account and use it to open database from ASP.NET application.

Hope this helps

Hi,

My app is an asp.net 2.0 app with no impersonation. By default, I
expect Network Service be used. The database uses Windows
Authentication. I added the "NT AUTHORITY\NETWO RK SERVICE account to
the database. I checked the security setting on the app folder at C:
\Inetpub\wwwroo t\HumanResource s and verified that NETWORK SERVICE is
added to the folder. Am I missing anything here?

Thanks,
