ASPNET_SETREG and Framework 1.1

I am trying to create an account that my app will use for impersonation. I
used aspnet_setreg.exe to create the encrypted values for username and
password, and set my <impersonate> tag accordingly. I have also
(temporarily) given my asp.net service account local admin access.

I still get "error reading the password from the registry."

Regmon shows that the registry values are being queried.

I did notice that the aspnet_setreg.exe was version 1.0.3705, and I am
running version 1.1 of the framework. Can this version be used for 1.1? If
not, where can I find the version that can? If so, what am I doing wrong?

Any insight is appreciated.
