Can OI Web Apps Run On NT Without Giving Out Admin Rights? (OpenInsight)

Has anyone successfully implement web apps using OI running on Window NT without giving out admin rights to the anonymous users…?

It just seems like IIS and OI don't mix. I have read several notes where developers receommend using a different web server. I am ready to move on to something else beside IIS but I just want first to make sure that no one has solved the IIS Admin Rights problem…

Thanks!

Randy-

One of our clients had success with the following settings (from their email, with spelling corrections):

We ran this Command:

ADSUTIL SET W3SVC/3/ROOT/cgi-bin/CreateProcessAsUser 0

After doing this, none of the other changes that we had made, including Anonymous user rights etc. were necessary.

Here is a link to where we got the information:

FWIW-

1) How do I determine the WEB ID (i.e. 1-2-3-4-5) of the web I want to change? How did you know it was Web ID "3" you wanted to change…?

2) The article says your should reference the EXE file not the folder where it lives… How did you use this command, as in Option A or B:

A) ADSUTIL SET W3SVC/3/ROOT/cgi-bin/CreateProcessAsUser 0 
B) ADSUTIL SET W3SVC/3/ROOT/cgi-bin/oicgi.exe/CreateProcessAsUser 0

3) Where exactly did you run this from? Start-Run? DOS? IIS? Somewhere else?

2) DOS Command Prompt?

3) WScript.exe?

Thanks…
