Assuming you are using a default configuration and not impersonating,
your ASP.NET code is trying to modify the IIS metabase as the ASPNET
user (Win2k, XP) or the NETWORK SERVICE user (Win2k3). These are the
accounts used to execute ASP.NET code by default, and the accounts
have limited permissions. When run as a win forms app it works because
Windows sees your identity as the one trying to modify the metabase.
Only users in the Operators and Administrators group can modify the
IIS metabase. I don't recommend putting the asp.net account into
either of these groups. Instead, for the page that needs to execute
this code, use impersonation, i.e.:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
<identity impersonate="true" />
Hope that gives you some information to go on,
