Hi Jayesh,

Thanks for the info - I think I may have found a more appropriate article that applies specifically to ASP.Net

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;q316675

The recommended solution(s) include:

1. Configure the ASP.NET worker process to run under the SYSTEM 
account in the <processModel> section of the Machine.config file.

2.  For security reasons, Microsoft recommends that you enable impersonation
on your ASP.NET application. This method works if the impersonated user 
has necessary permissions to the computer and the database that you are accessing.

3.  Grant read and write permissions for the "Everyone" group on the database
and the database folder. This method is not safe; therefore, Microsoft does not
recommend this method.

Does anyone know what has to be done to "enable impersonation" on an ASP.NET application...
