I've read the following article regarding NTFS permissions
and ASP.NET

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-us/dnnetsec/html/SecNetHT01.asp

In table 1 it says:
Parent directories of context
List Folder/ Read
Process
For file change notifications and the C# compiler.

What does parent directories of context mean?
Must c:\ and c:\winnt be assigned read/list folder
permissions for the ASP.NET user? (I'm running framework
1.0)

Hope someone can help with this.

Regards
