I am planning on using DPAPI for an asp.net application.
I will configure the app to run under an account I
create. My understaning of DPAPI is that it needs an
login in order to work correctly, i.e. I need to log on
interactivley at least once with the the account. That
sounds dandy. My question is this, if I plan on
configuring the custom account to *not* be able to logon
interactively (via the local policy) will that nix the
ability to use DPAPI??

TIA, kevin
