Access Denied error while accessing a DCOM Component from VB.Net application

[nikhil.bharathesh]

Hi all,

I have a DCOM being referenced in my Web APP(VB.NET). in one of the
classes i try to instantiate a Cl(VB.Net)ass present in my DCOM
component. While doing the same i get this error :

"Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is
denied.

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.

Source Error:


Line 418: End Function
Line 419: Public Function Login(ByVal username As String, ByVal
password As String) As DataTable
Line 420: Dim sPWEncrypter As SEAESLib.AES = New
SEAESLib.AES
Line 421: Dim sEncryptedPassword =
sPWEncrypter.AESE(password)
Line 422:".

I have granted permissions for APNET account for that DLL. Still id t
doesnt work. Tried "<identity impersonate="true" <USername>=<value>
<password> =<value> . Still doesnt work.

Please help
