Listing/killing processes on IIS6....

[Stu]

Hi,

I have an asp.net page that lists all running processes on the server using
the script below:

Dim p As Process
For Each p In Process.GetProcesses
sb.Append(p.ProcessName)
sb.Append("<br>")
Next

When I run this locally it works fine (on XP). When I uplaod it to the Win
2003 server I get the 'Access is denied' error shown at the bottom of the
page.

This app is running using it's own user credentials (as I am doing word
automation) - how do I allow the user this web site is running as to
list/stop processes on the server?

Thanks in advance,

Stu

Grant the necessary permissions to the user account under which the ASP.Net
app is running. Alternatively, use impersonation.

Which files require the persmissions?

I have even run the web site impersonating the administrator account
(briefly!). This allowed me to list the processes but noty stop one.

Thanks in advance,
