Problems installing a service

Hey,

I have created a windows service in C#. The service gets and sets its
configuration in a .config file.
When I install the service with installutil serviceName. The service works
without a problem.
When I create an install package and install the service with the package.
The service woudn't start because the service doesn't have access to the
..config file. This is because the service has the rights of "local service"
which doesn't have access to the config file.
How can I change the premissions of a file by the installer so that the
service has access to the .config file.

Thanks in avance,
Bart
