Folder permissions
Hello,
I am trying to set folder permissions to some folders.
The NetworkService needs full control to the followinf directories:
- [WindowsFolder]\Temp
- [INSTALLDIR]\SomeFolder
I tried do do that using the permissions dialog:
=> Domain: [%USERDOMAIN]
User: NetworkService
=> Domain:
User: NetworkService
Results into following exception
Note that it must work on French/Dutch/English OS's
Any ideas?

I have solved it.
You can use the well-known security identifiers.
The SID for the NetworkService user is: S-1-5-20
