Debugging Web Applications
There are two conditions for debugging of Web applications: running ASP.NET as your restricted login account and directory permissions. For the set of directories you will need to add read or write access to, refer to the following table.

Enabling ASP.NET to run as another user on Windows Server 2003
With Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6, there is a new feature named application pools. Each pool can be configured to run as a different user, provided that user has membership in the IIS_WPG group. Virtual roots can be added to an application pool, and the debugger will then be able to attach to it if the pool is running as the same user that launched the debugger. This mechanism provides an easy way to set up an alternate execution environment, safely protect user credentials, and set up additional virtual roots.
Adding and Configuring an Application Pool
1. Run the Management Console compmgmt.msc as an administrative user.
2. Expand the Services and Applications node to display the Internet Information Services, and Application Pools nodes.
3. Right-click the Application Pools node, choose New, and then choose Application Pool.
4. Type the name for the Application Pool and click OK.
5. Right-click on the new Application Pool and choose Properties.
6. Under the Identity tab, choose the Configurable option.
7. In the corresponding boxes, enter the User name and Password that you will be running the debugger with and click OK.
Note This account must be a member of the IIS_WPG group and have the access permissions listed above in order to run ASP.NET applications.
Setting a Virtual Root to run in an Application Pool
1. Run the Management Console compmgmt.msc as an administrative user
2. Expand the Services and Applications node to display the Internet Information Services, Web Sites, and Default Web Site nodes.
3. Expand the Default Web Sites node to display all of the virtual roots available.
4. Right-click on the virtual root to configure and choose Properties.
5. On the Virtual Directory tab, change the Application Pool drop-down to select the application pool running with the appropriate user identity and click OK.
