Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the link, but my problem was i created a folder thorugh my
application and now I want to assign the ASPNET user modify permission
on this folder. How do you think I will be able to do that using
PermissionSet, the example doesnt seem to help with that, is there any
other way of doing this.

Thanks.

My apologies, Maximus. I copied the URL from the browser address window, but
it was not the URL of the page I was looking at. Here is the correct URL:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfSystemSecurityPermissions.asp?frame=true

Hi Kevin,

I thought for this you need to use WMI. What I was looking for an
example which I can refer to as I have been trying to use WMI the
examples have been refering to need the DACL property of the folder to
be accessed. Due to some reason when I get the Security settings, I see
only description and Return value as the properties I do not see the
DACL. I was wondering why?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm a little lost here. What namespace are you referring to, and what
classes are you using? If you're asking about WMI, I can't answer, as I've
never used it. I do know that the System.Security.Permissions Namespace has
the classes you need to set permissions on files an folders. Specifically,
the FileIOPermission class.

Hi Kevin,

Do you think using FileIOPermission Class I will be able to change
permission settings on a folder, which I created through my application,
for the ASPNet user. If so can do you have an example? As I did not find
anyway by which I could set permission settings for any user(ASPNET in
my case).

If you could send me an example or something I will greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

Hi Kevin,

avail. I have no clue as to how I will set permission on a folder
created thorugh the appliction for aspnet user. Any example for the same
will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Maximus,

If you follow the link I posted to the System.Security.Permissions page
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfSystemSecurityPermi
ssions.asp?frame=true), and follow the link on that page to the page about
the FileIOPermission class
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemsecuritypermi
ssionsfileiopermissionclasstopic.asp?frame=true), there are examples right
on that page you can go by.

Hi kevin,

Even if I follow the link I dont see how I can specify the ASPNET user
in the FileIOPermission class. I dont see any function that will let me
specify for what user I can change the permission. Do you think its
possible if so can you pinpoint the function I can use?

Thanks.

 

[Kevin Spencer]

Okay, the FileIOPermission class sets permission for the code being run. If
you want to set Permission for a specific user, use the PrincipalPermission
class.
