Where's my crystal ball? Oh, it rolled under the desk once again. Well, hum, let's blow the dust that covers it... Here we are... So you are using a Microsoft Windows server, isn't it? I don't know the release for sure, the image in the crystal ball isn't very clear (or is it the dust? or maybe my glasses?). And the web server, what can it be? IIS, I suppose. Well, never mind.
Your web server runs under a particular user identity. To achieve you goal, you must ensure that your web server user is able to :
- access the directory where live the programs you want it to run;
- execute the programs you want it to run (from explorer, right-click, Properties, Security tab, add the minimal rights(execution only) for the web server user, normally IUSR_<machinename>).
- instead of juggling with authorizations on system executables, you may make copies in a special directory and give the rights on these copies instead; however these copies may not be updated automatically, among other problems.
