Hi,

I am a concerned that I need to give the IIS anon logon account r,w,e,m privileges to the webinator folder with search and search.vtx files. Once 'search.vtx' is built by texis.exe can the privileges be lowered to r,e ?

Thanks, David

Yes. It only needs to write that directory when compiling. It only compiles when the script changes. You can avoid ever opening the perms by compiling by hand by running
texis -C search
from a command prompt after you make edits to search.
You should perform that command from the webinator directory and may need to give the full path to texis.exe to run it.
