Actually when your web app runs it will run under ASPNET account so that's
the account that you need to give rights to for your web app to see
anything. Under 2000 server the rights are more relaxed, 2003 is more
secure when it comes to running these apps. Also look at the settings for
IUSR_MACHINENAME and give that account proper rights.
