.NET machine.config John A Grandy 06-13-2006

In ASP.NET programming , the host server's machine.config <processModel>
settings become especially relevant if the web app uses Windows
authentication mode.

Example web.config

<configuration>
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Windows" />
...

In XP Pro , options for the machine.config <processModel> userName parameter
include "MACHINE" , "NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE" , or some other local or
network account. I believe that ASP.NET impersonates the specified
account's credentials when requesting authorization for various resources
(including databases if INTEGRATED SECURITY=SSPI is specified in the
connection string).

How does WS03 differ in the <processModel> options available?

Any further info or explanation most welcome.
