Server Error in '/DirectoryUpdate' Application
In some situations, ASP.NET applications need the "write" permission to the
following Microsoft .NET Framework folder:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET
Files
This most often happens when running Directory Update on a domain controller.
To see the following error, you need to open the Web browser on the console of
the web server and access Directory Update on the local machine. Here is
the error: Server Error in '/DirectoryUpdate'
Application.

 To
fix this, you need to assign the NETWORK SERVICE account the following
permissions to this folder:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET File
Give the NETWORK SERVICE account the Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder
Contents, Read, and Write permissions.
With version 1.3 of the software, we have included a batch file that will assign
these permissions for you. Look in C:\Program Files\Directory Update for
