I had a problem of getting some info from a paradox table on
a novell server via IIS: The problem is that you cannot log
on if you are as a "system user" which is the default for
IIS.
This is how I worked it out:
Web client asks a request
a cgi script (or isapi dll) is triggered.
using "impersonateuser" api there is a loggon to a novell
server as a specific user (must have the netware client
installed on NT)
the database is opened and the request is done via ODBC
(must have ODBC installed on IIS)
the IIS server then reformats the results in html that is
sent back to the client.
With isapi, (and quite a bit of tinkering) you can open a
connection as a specific user and always use this
connection.
(I don't think this can be achieved with a .exe program)
This was used on a secure network!

Subject: Running IIS as other than the LocalSystem user
Hi,
Quick question:
Does anyone have any experiences with running IIS as another
user than the LocalSystem user?
(Yes, this user would have to have extra priviliges so that
it can log on to other user accounts, I know.)
If you like, you can mail directly to me; I'll summarize
the findings (if any?) to the list later on.
Thx,
/Mike
