My problem has to do with WMI and .NET, and I'm hoping you can help me out!

I've been building a DNSAPI using WMI from C#, and everything has been
working fine, when using the API from a Windows service or application.

Now I trying to use the API from a web service, with no luck at all. When
trying to create a zone, I keep getting "Generic Error". I'm using the same
API, and the same arguments.

My first idea was that it had to do with access rights, so I change the
access to the web service from anonymous to Windows auth., but with no luck,
not even when the login I'm using is part of the domain and local admin
groups.

What else should I try?
Normally when creating the connection to the DNS namespace, I do not set
username and password as connection options, because that fails (something
with "not needed on local machine"), would that make a difference?

regards,
Steen
