Task Server With PowerWeb
Because tasks can be invoked from VBScript customization, they can be used for both PowerUser clients and PowerWeb. VBScript customization is executed by the PowerWeb module that runs as an IIS extension.
The Task Server and PowerWeb (IIS) do not need to be installed on the same computer, but the PowerWeb process must have sufficient privileges to connect to the Task Server via DCOM. This will depend on the user account used for PowerWeb.
When PowerWeb is run with the IIS Application Protection option set to Low (IIS Process), it will run under a local user account by default. In this case, it will have no access to a remote Task Server.
