Hello,
I am experiencing an unprecedented problem... my company has several Web
servers. one of them is Win 2003 Server and another win 2000 adv server both
used for web production

the past few days we've experience an unusual problem to our perpective:
We keed getting Access denied for any ASP.NET page we try to run.
I even created a basic ASP.NET app site using Vstudio .net 2003 which create
a simple webform1.aspx when I run it... I get access denied with a lot of
errors shown below:
Any ideas?  I went as far as giving ASPNET and "Network Service" read and
execute permission to these directories explicitly... I never had to do that
before... No major changes happened on the Server... I only apply some
Windows UPdates through the standard Windows Update feature... the same
thing happen on the win 2000 server
Please help...

Access to the path "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the
current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information
about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider
granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity.
ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or
Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not
impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity
impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically
IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer,
choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the
appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the
boxes for the desired access.
