Description

Security considerations with the web server cache when using the default CachePV directory.

Summary

Since you are pointing to the WebServer folder in IIS for the Home Directory of the PaperVision Enterprise website, all subfolders will inherit the properties from the WebServer folder. Since you do not want allow Execute Permissions on the CachePV folder, it is recommended that you set the Execute Permissions to “ None” for the CachePV virtual directory by right-clicking on the CachePV directory listing under your PaperVision web site in IIS, going to Properties | Execute Permissions and selecting None.
