I'm pretty sure that Mike is talking about NTFS permissions (and Windows users and groups). Can you point us to how ASP.NET code running as fully trusted gets around that? Cheers Ken -------- Original Message --------
From: "Dinis Cruz" <dinis () ddplus net> Subject: RE: Apache VS IIS Securiyt model question Please note that these security settings will only be relevant (in IIS) in a Partially Trusted Website (i.e. the Asp.Net code is NOT running with Full Trust). If the code is running with Full Trust, then most likely those security permissions will be easily bypassed.

Pitch: In IIS there is the ability to set permissions on a per website basis. In other words the ability to limit access to files and directories based on the users credentials that the website is running under. Additionally, you would in turn add this user to a group and apply group permissions to an object that needed to be accessed by more than one site. Question: Is there a similar security model for apache that would allow credentials from a user to run a virtual website and access files only for a specific virtual site. Also, does any one have a diagram of the apache process? Thanks, Mike
