Hi Patrick,

I don't think this makes any differences, unless the class library is
working as a serviced component, or something similar.

Hi Patrick,

By default, it is the IUSR account that is a member of the Guests group.
You may refer to the following article for more information on the IWAM
account:

Changes to the IWAM Account in IIS 5.0
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=236855

I hope the information is useful to you.

On a fresh built of IIS5.0 on Win2K SP4, both IUSR_machineName and
IWAM_MachineName are member of the Guests built-in groups. The article
listed below does not mention about group membership, but I wonder if there
would be any other undesirable "side effects" if I take IWAM_machinename out
of the guests group?

Hi ,

By defalut on Windows 2000, the work process for ASP.NET will run with the
account ¡°ASPNET¡±.

However if you install the .NET Framework version 1.1 on a domain
controller, the installation does not create the local ASPNET account.
Instead, ASP.NET applications run under other identities. On Windows 2000
domain controller servers, ASP.NET applications run under the
IWAM_machinename identity.

Please check if this is a domain controller. If this is a domain
controller, please make sure the iwam and iuser accounts have the
appropriate rights:

Access this computer from the network iuser_machinename and
iwam_machinename

Logon as a batch job iuser_machinename
and iwam_machinename

Logon Locally
iuser_machinename
