Issue with user roles

Hello

We have an ASP.NET Web application which uses some activexcontrols at the
client side. We use internet component download technology to donwload and
register these activex controls at the client side. The application is
working fine in machines with Windows 2000/Pro/Xp etc., for Administrators.
But for normal user the application is not working correctly. What user
group should I add to the users who is accessing the application. How can
they use the activex controls installed by the administrators ?

Any help ?

Thank you

This is not the right newsgroup - try one of the ActiveX groups. An
ActiveX control served by an ASP.NET page is no different than a control
served by an ASP or HTML page. .NET security is not involved at all.

If I had to guess, I'd say it depends on the ActiveX control itself. If
the control needs to do things that only the administrator can do (write
to certain areas of the filesystem that others do not have acces to),
you would have to identify those tasks and grant the users those
specific permissions.
