Hi,

I'm in the process of upgrading a .Net 1/W2000/IIS 5 website to .NET 2/W2K3/IIS6.

There's one webservice that accesses Lotus Notes via the NLSXBE.DLL that is giving me trouble. Works fine in development using the built in .NET server when running as an Admin user (so the DLL and all dependencies are present and registered where neccessary). On the IIS6 site anonymous access is disabled and it loads OK if I log in as Admin with impersonation=true but fails if impersonation=false (i.e. running under the default process for the application pool (NETWORK SERVICE)).

I've tried giving the NETWORK SERVICE account full access to the relevant lotus\notes folder but that doesn't seem to be enough. FWIW it also loads OK if the application pool identity is changed to 'Local System' - but, naturally, I don't want to do that.

Anyone know what other permissions the NETWORK SERVICE account might be missing? Or is something else going on? I guess I'll find out by trial and error tomorrow but someone on the other side of the pond might provide the answer whilst I sleep < g >

TIA,
Viv
