many rights and privileges. If you can get around that...
True.... This is the problem that my IS department have faced for a few
years. Originally before I joined the company, the IUSR account was given
full domain admin priveleges, so that IS admin could perform such
functions through the Intranet, and this is how its stayed for a long
time.
Lately, I've been considering the article on how to create a SOAP::Lite
server on perl.com, to produce a possible 'limited access' proxy for
servicing such requests.
