How to Give an ASP.NET app access to local server registery?

[Rob R. Ainscough]

How can I permit my ASP.NET web app access to the Event Log?

I sometimes use the application Event log to write out debug info when I'm
testing -- but I get an error:

"Requested registry access is not allowed."

Is there anyway around this?

1) Give registry access permission to the ASPNET user
2) Create a user with registry access and impersonate

Tasos,

Thanks, I tried 1) -- no go. I used 2) and it worked.
