Webservice to an Out of process server



WinXP Pro sp2
IIS 5.1
ASP.NET 2.0.50727
Visual Studio 2005

I wrote a simple (I thought) webservice that talks to a running application
that has an activeX interface.

Then I made a simple website to consume this web service. Everything works
fine when running in the Visual Studio web development server which runs
under my account permissions. But when I publish the web service to IIS the
web service fails to obtain the running process object.
This leads me to believe that it is a security issue with IIS. So I made
sure all the directories involved had admin privileges (NTSF) then added the
IWAM and IUSR and even the Guest account to be admin's. Under IIS the
Webservice as the Scripts and Executables permissions, but still no luck.

Are there any other security settings that I am missing?

Or is there some way to register the running process with IIS?

Thanks in advance.

Hank
