Hi,
I have a web service, as I understand from msdn docs, web services in IIS 6
works with network service account. Therefore for a specific purpose, I have
to access the HKCU registry of network service account and add some keys
there. But the problem is that, How to do that, since network service
account is not a normal user account. can you please tell me how to do such
a change in reg (HKCU) of network service account??
thanks,
atx

Hi ATX

Look in HK_Users in the registry. According to:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243330/en-us
the SID of network service account is S-1-5-20. You may need to modify
the ACL of the key to modify it.

Hope this helps,
