I have a class that uses raw sockets to ping and trace route to hosts, it
works like a charm. I have made this a part of a webservice running on a
hosted server (where my account is not part of the ADMIN group), and it
causes a "An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its
access permissions" error. Basically, ASPNET needs to be part of the admins
...

My question is: do any of you use a web hosting solution that permits the
above, or at least allows you to impersonate an ADMIN?

Thanks in advance,

comes back.
