Hello,

I have a COM object which allows an asp page reading a user defined event
log (the account used to access the event log is the connected user's one.)

When I store the page on IIS on a W2000 server, I can use it whathever user
account I use.
But if I store the page on IIS on w Windows 2003 server I get on error
(Access denied) when I open the asp page with a user that does not belong to
Domain Admins group.

I want to know if there is a difference (in a security point of view)
between IIS on Windows 2003 and IIS on Windows 2000.

Thank you.
