PrincipalPermission, getting started

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi
On a machine called 'machineName', a user called userName is a
member of the ora_dba group. I can see this in computer management.
Why then does the below throw an exception?


AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetPrincipalPolicy(PrincipalPolicy.WindowsPrincipal);

PrincipalPermission p = new PrincipalPermission("\\machineName
\userName", @"machineName\ora_dba", true);
p.Demand();

thanks
.
