That account is most likely your ASPNET user account. I've seen the same
thing (it turn to numbers instead of the name). Just remove it and re-add
the ASPNET user, giving it full access to your wwwroot folder.

The ? Indicates, as far as I know, that the security token isn't recognized.
I've only seen this when an account has been deleted or a disk has been
moved to a computer in another domain. Any chance this could have been
related to another account related to your site?

Subject: [DOTNET] IIS / ASP.NET security settings


I am trying to tighten up security on my website, and I've noticed a few
problems. If I don't give the Everyone group read/read & execute/list folder
contents on the web root, the aspx pages won't work. Even if I give the
INET_USR the same permissions, the pages won't work. When I take a look at
other security settings, I see this user with an odd name like "8-23-123232
etc" and a question mark where the user (or group) symbol usually is. I
assume that this is a utility account that handles directory monitoring and
compiling aspx pages, but why can't I see this account in the computer
management or security tab? I really don't like giving "Everyone" any access
to the website.

Thanks,
Erick
