Hi Dominick,

Are you saying there is no difference between accessing web application resources and resources
accessed via code? My understanding was that the latter required that the web app process execute
under an identity that had sufficient permissions to do so.

Of course I may have assumed incorrectly that was what he was attempting to do.
