Event Log Write access under ASP.NET

I'm trying to write to the Windows event log from an ASP.NET application
which is impersonating a local user (through p/invoke LogonUser and .NET
impersionation). Although the user I am impersonating can write
successfully when interactively logged on, I get an Access Denied result
from the interop call to advapi32's RegisterEventSource when impersonating
this same user under ASP.NET. If I make said user member of Administrators,
it works, but I have not been able to figure out what permission or
privilege is necessary for the non-admin to function in this scenario.

Anyone have a guess as to why this may be or what permissions to try?

Thanks,
Jeremy
