Security Considerations

WordWriter executes in one of the following user contexts:

The NETWORK SERVICE account (IIS6)
The ASPNET account (IIS5)
The authenticated user account
The impersonated user account (when impersonation is turned on)

When a WordWriter application opens an existing document the application's security context (NETWORK SERVICE, ASPNET, authenticated user, or impersonated user) must have Read access to the document.

If you want to save a generated Word file on the server (rather than stream it to a browser), the NETWORK SERVICE account, the ASPNET account, authenticated user, or impersonated user must have Write access to the directory in which the file will be saved.

For more information on ASP.NET security, see Authentication in ASP.NET: .NET Security Guidance.
