I am 99.9% sure that is the version I downloaded just a week ago and
installed.

When I look at the version of System.dll, it is 2.0.50727.42. But, when I
look at the version of System.Web.dll, it is 2.0.50727.210.

Also, I went to another developers box here, and they too had version
2.0.50727.210 of System.Web.dll installed. Are you sure that isn't normal?
This developer had an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on their machine at one
time in the past. They don't right now though.

re:
I do have the May CTP for LINQ

I don't think that's the problem.

The .Net Framework beta version I'm referring to is : 2.0.50727.210
The released version is : 2.0.50727.42

Did you install ASP.NET from SBS disks?

Hmmm, I do have the May CTP for LINQ, and BLINQ installed on this machine.
That must be it, so I will try uninstalling them. However, so you know, it
was a BLINQ ASP.NET 2.0 site I was trying to get working. Since that site
was generated by Microsoft code, I would have expected it to work, but
admittedly, that code is still beta or even less mature.

I'll uninstall that and see if it works and get back to you. Thanks.

I hate to tell you this, but you have conflicting ASP.NET versions
installed on your computer, including a beta version :

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.42;
ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.210

That could very well be the source of your problems.

You should try to resolve that by uninstalling all currently installed 2.0
versions of the .Net Framework, and reinstalling the released version
( the redistributable will do fine ).

If you have a 64-bit machine, there's a link
at the bottom of that page for the 64-bit versions.

re:

<processModel autoConfig="true"/>

Odd...

Here's what my machine.config entry for processModel looks like :

<processModel enable="true" timeout="Infinite" idleTimeout="Infinite" shutdownTimeout="00:00:05"
requestLimit="Infinite" requestQueueLimit="5000" restartQueueLimit="10" memoryLimit="60"
webGarden="false" cpuMask="0xffffffff" userName="machine" password="AutoGenerate"
logLevel="Errors"
clientConnectedCheck="00:00:05" comAuthenticationLevel="Connect"
comImpersonationLevel="Impersonate"
responseDeadlockInterval="00:03:00" responseRestartDeadlockInterval="00:03:00" autoConfig="true"
maxWorkerThreads="20" maxIoThreads="20" minWorkerThreads="1" minIoThreads="1"
serverErrorMessageFile="" pingFrequency="Infinite" pingTimeout="Infinite" maxAppDomains="2000" />

If you are set on using a Windows or a domain account,
instead of the default provided, you can run :

aspnet_regiis -ga <WindowsUserAccount>

substituting the Windows or domain user account you write
into the processModel section of machine.config.

That will grant read access to the IIS metabase to the account specified.

*However* ( and I stress this ), uninstalling all versions of ASP.NET 2.0
(including the Beta Version:2.0.50727.210 which you currently have installed,
and installing just the released version ( 2.0.50727.42 ) should have you in
clover in almost no time at all.

The release version's install routine will set you up with
a correct processModel configuration you can use.

Thanks for responding. Boy, you really had me excited that specifying the
userName as machine was going to solve my problem, but it didn't.

First, let me mention that the processModel section of my machine.config
looked like this after install:

<processModel autoConfig="true"/>

Was I supposed to know to add the userName attribute? Or did something not
install properly? The only reason I know of the userName attribute is from
the research I did trying to resolve this problem. My assumption was that by
leaving it off, it would default to ASPNET.

Regardless, I tried what you suggested, and it didn't work. Here is what my
processModel section looked like:

<processModel userName="machine" password="AutoGenerate" autoConfig="true"/>

Here is the exact error:
