ProcessStartInfo - launching external .exe on server from ASP.NET

I have a button on a web page that launches an .exe on the web server to
perform some basic file handling tasks.

this application works fine on Win2k IIS5, but doesn't work on 2003 Server
IIS6.

there are no exceptions or error messages when trying to launch the
process - just nothing.

Does anyone have any ideas / suggestions on this?

What is the best approach to handling this - short of porting the .exe to a
..dll and making an API call?

thanks - Fruber
