ASP.NET Impersonation on Windows 2000 - update

A while ago, I posted about some problems I ran into when using ASP.NET code impersonation on a Windows 2000 Server (SP4). We even logged a Microsoft Support call for it.

Anyway, as with most time consuming issues, it turned out there was a very simple solution. As it states in the Knowlegde Base article, the local ASPNET account should be granted the 'Act as part of the operating system' privilege (this does not seem to be required on Windows Server 2003). The KB article 306158 forgets to add that this will require an IIS reset for it to have effect.

Logical if you think about it maybe...in hindsight.
