Hi,
I have a web service, as I understand from msdn docs, web services in IIS 6
works with network service account. Therefore for a specific purpose, I have
to access the HKCU registry of network service account and add some keys
there. But the problem is that, How to do that, since network service
account is not a normal user account. can you please tell me how to do such
a change in reg (HKCU) of network service account??
thanks,
atx

HKCU is always the currently logged in account.
HKU is the hive into which HKCU is an alias for one SID keyset.
S-1-5-20 is the SID for Network Service
You should be able to see that in HKU
However, use of Network Service is only the default account
configured for IIS app pool use and this can be adjusted.
