I have a web service which uses threading and impersonation to call a STA
object. I have also followed KB article
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;325791 to impersonate
correctly with STA component.

I put <identity impersonate="true" /> in web.config

Right before my File Access, I confirmed the correct user in
System.security.principal.windowsidentity.current().name

I set correct NTFS permissions on the file. I still get access denied msg
when trying to get this file. I thought code impersonation avoids having to
use Kerberos delegation? Why can't I access this file? (it works on local
webserver)

Regards,
B
