Hi,

Can anyone tell me if the IIS_WPG group has more user
rights/permissions/privilege/ than those describe in the Microsoft document
Default Permissions and User Rights for IIS 6.0
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=812614

I would like to configure an application pool identity using a domain
account but I don't want to put this account in the IIS_WPG group.

Since Application Center 2000 SP2 replicates the cluster controller the
files, NTFS permissions and IIS metabase, I end up having its server\IIS_WPG
group in the acl of the member servers metabase W3SVC/AppPools. Since this
is a local group, the servers don't recognize the SID and therefore nothing
works.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Sylvie P.
