I think that even if the web server was running the same user account as access, you could not open access anyway, by default access is mono-user.
I think you might have some options to enable that within access, but I can not help you with that, I'm not an access specialist.
Btw if you want to know what user account is running, there is a tool in the ressource kit called whoami (like the unix one), just call it from a test cron job.
Have a nice day

How do I determine what account I am running? I have cygwin cron jobs populating a Microsoft Access database. Simultaneously, httpd/cli is querying that database. Which account are the latter using?
The problem is that the cron jobs are running in the administrator account and are creating a .mdl (MSAccess lock file) that httpd/cli cannot open (because httpd is running in some other account?)
Thanks,
