Problem with authentication on a web site - allowDefintion='Machin

| One of my guys is trying to move an application from our test box to our
production server cluster and is having problems. He had moved over
everything, set up the new site including making the web site an application
through properties. He even made a virtual directory that is in the web site
an application. When somebody logs on he gets the error
allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error
can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application
in IIS.
He has checked screen by screen and the two systems are set up the same
(although they are using a different structure base but the same directory
structure)
What else could he check for ? He's tried deleting the site and creating it
again according to the KB from the MS website.
It's .Net 1.1 running on Server 2003.
TIA - J.

| Does the asp.net server process have write permissions to the folders involved?

| This exception occurs when a web.config file is present in a folder that is
not configured as an IIS application.
