Impersonated users in IIS_WPG on Windows Server 2003

[Chris Simmons]

I have an application where I am using impersonation. My development
workstation is XP. For development, things went smoothly. However
when deploying to the server, which is Windows Server 2003, I started
getting a permissions error on the dynamically-generated folder for
the application in
"%WINDOWS%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET
Files...". Upon investigating, I found the IIS_WPG group had full
rights here. I figured placing the impersonated user in this group
would fix the problem and it did. I did some rudimentary digging on
Google to see if this was the answer and it appears to be, but I
wanted to see if anyone out there could verify that this is the proper
course of action.

Sounds good to me.
