eventlog
If you want to allow the ASPNET account to write to the eventlog, you could
try the following (I do
have to give the usual warning about editing the registry, you do so at
your own risk :):
1. Go to Start and Select Run.
2. Type "regedit"
3. Keep expanding the tree until you get to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application
4. Double Click on the RestrictGuestAccess key in the Application folder.
5. change the value from 1 to 0 and then click OK
6. Close RegEdit
7. Restart you Machine
8. Go to Start and Select Run.
9. Type "regedit"
10. Keep expanding the tree until you get to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
11. Right click on the EventLog Folder and select permissions.
12. Click Add
13. Make sure that the location is set to your local machine
14. In the "Enter Objects Name" field type "ASPNET"
15. Click "Check Name"
16. After it resolves, Click OK
17. Give ASPNET Read/Write control.
This should just give the ASPNET account rights to the eventlog. This
shouldn't open your
machine up. I hope this helps!
