Hi!
You can make your application run under another account than ASPNET. I.E.
you need access to the filesystem somewhere ASPNET doesn't have access. To
do this, you can insert the <identity> element in web.config like this:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<!-- anywhere you'd like inside system.web -->
<identity impersonate="true" userName="xx" password="xx"/>
If you're gonna use this on a production server, I recommend reading the
following article. It explains how you can move the user/pass values to the
registry instead of having them in clear text in web.config.
