    <p>ASP.NET is not authorized to access

    granting access rights to the resource
    to the ASP.NET request identity.
    ASP.NET has a base process identity
    (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5
    or Network Service on IIS 6) that is
    used if the application is not
    impersonating. If the application is
    impersonating via , the identity
    will be the anonymous user (typically
    IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated
    request user. </p>
    
    <p>To grant ASP.NET access to a file,
    right-click the file in Explorer,
    choose "Properties" and select the
    Security tab. Click "Add" to add the
    appropriate user or group. Highlight
    the ASP.NET account, and check the
    boxes for the desired access.</p>
