AspAllowOutOfProcComponents Is Obsolete in IIS 5.0

ID: Q233968

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Internet Information Services version 5.0

SUMMARY

Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 5.0 now ignores the AspAllowOutOfProcComponents metabase property value and sets the default value to TRUE. This is a change from IIS 4.0, where this property was set to FALSE by default.

MORE INFORMATION

In IIS 4.0, the AspAllowOutOfProcComponents metabase property was set to FALSE for security reasons, where it was possible for a user to start an out-of-process component that could later be used by another user in the original user's context. Changes in the architecture of IIS 5.0 prevent this from occurring and the value of this property is now ignored.
