web.config security settings

[BLOEDHOND]

Hi All I need to write to my web.config file under program control. I can read it no problem. If I create an account for "everyone" then I can write to the web config file else I get a access denied message. How can I do this under program control? Regards

Give permission to ASPNET login and problem will be solved.

Thanx But I need to roll out to 30 clients and none of them will know how to do this. It must happen automatically. Regards

You should give this permission on the folder which contains your asp.net application. (usrename: \\sysname\aspnet, read/write)

sorry i'm lost Do you mean that you must specify the setting when deploying the application?
