Re: Help : Access denied ???

well - you can always set up a directory during deployment and ACL it appropriately - the System.Security.AccessControl namespace provides everything to do that programmatically.

Lets replace the Log file by a database for instance.
That database contains the application configuraton setting based on
loged
in user.
So each user is free to modify through a UI its application settings
which
get store to that database. The database is then common and unique for
the
whole application and every user.
Actually that database is installed with my application deployemen
package under Program File folder. Then a normal user to dot have
write access under sub folders.

If I need to share the database location to be read and write access
for every user do I have to define the user right during my
application deployement or do it manually ?

What is the best ?

Dear all,

I have a windows application that can be use by any user. In order
to check my applciation least priviledge i nee to be sure that my
applciation runs correctly with minimum rights.

One phase of my appliction is that it store some log information in
a file whatever the user logged in. For that I store the log file
under "Application.CommonAppDataPath", as it name explain, its
Common. Common to every use yes but not for writing unless you are
an administrator.

Storing it under Application.LocalUserAppDataPath will generate one
log file for every new user. This is not what I want.

What is the best way tohandle that situation ?

regards
serge
