A question about windows accounts

[Chris Leffer]

Hi.

I have a windows 2003 server running an asp.net application. I use an
administrator account to logon to this machine. When my asp.net site
receives requests from my users, these requests are passed to the
Network Services account. So my question is: What resources the users
coming from the internet can access? Those allowed by the windows user
logged on (my administrator account) or those allowed by the Network
Service account?

Regards,
Chris Leffer

They will run under Network Service account whenever you set
impersonate="false" (the default setting) in your web.config file.
Otherwise the will run under their own accounts if IIS is configured to use
only NTLM authentication.
Notice that in neither scenario they will run under the logged on user that
is your Administrator account in your case.
