aspnet_regiis –ga question

Folks,

In using the aspnet_regiis –ga command I'm running into an issue. I'm using
this command against a domain account e.g. aspnet_regiis –ga MyDomain\ayott
and it works fine. If I perform the command against another domain account it
doesn't do anything but show all the options. I'm running XP SP2 but I'm got
a virtual machine with Win2003 loaded up and I get the same exact results.
Does anybody know why I can't use this command against another domain account
besides my own? It sounds like a permissions issue or something. If it is
then there is no documentation to that effect at all.

BTW, per another thread on this board, I had to put the domain name in all
upper-case to make even my own name work. This isn't documented either. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

aspnet_regiis -ga DomainName\AccountName

....should work all the time...if the server is a member of that domain.

If the server is in its own domain, SomeOtherDomain\AccountName won't work.

Juan,

Does it have to be on a server? Will it work on XP with SP2? I've just tried
adding several of my co-worker (using their domain account) and I get the
same thing. ie nothing but options for aspnet_regiis. The only time this
command has worked is when I use my own credentials (domain account in upper
case).

Hi, Anthony.

re:

I'm not too sure whether you can use domain accounts to run XP programs/services.
I'll have to check on that.

Have you tried adding the domain account to XP's user list,
before attempting to use the same account to run ASP.NET as ?

Juan,

I can add domain accounts to XP.

Also, I've got a VM machine that is Windows 2003 and I get the same results
when I run aspnet_regiis with the -ga option . The network administrator is
trying to do the same thing on one of our servers on the network and he is
having the same issue as well. I wonder if there is a list somewhere of the
what this command does so that I can try and do them manually. I tried just
adding the user to the IIS_WPG group but that just got rid of the "Service
Unavailable" message. If you have got any more thoughts I sure would
appreciate them. On the Win 2003 server machine. I didn't install VS.NET I
just installed the .NET 2.0 run-time redistributables and the .NET 2.0 SDK
and that was after I installed IIS so I don't think there are any issues with
that. Thank you for your posts btw.
