URGENT: Strange Prob With Web.config <<identity> section.

[Sonal]

I am trying to impersonate user with windows account.

If I write following lines in web.config it show error
<identity impersonate="true" userName="contoso\Jane" password="pass"/>

ERROR:
Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web
server. Server side-error occurred on sending debug HTTP request.

Make sure the server is operating correctly. Verify there are no syntax
errors in web.config by doing a Debug.Start Without Debugging. You may also
want to refer to the ASP.NET and ATL Server debugging topic in the online
documentation.
On the other hand if i just write like this then error goes aways and
application starts running...

<identity impersonate="true" userName="" password=""/>
I am wondering what is wrong. can any one guide.

My guess is that the \ causes the problem perhaps replacing it with a /
would help

You need to give contoso\Jane full read and WRITE permissions in the .net
framework directory on the web server (C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework)
and also perhaps in the webs root directory.
