aspnet_regiis on Vista

[MosheY]

I have Vista Business and I am trying to encrypt a connection string in the web.config file as in XP aspnet_regiis -pef.... but it does not work! I get some sort of message which I do not understand.

Can someone help me?

Instead of using -pef try using -pe

Eg:

aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStri ngs" -app "/WebAppDirectory " -prov "DataProtection ConfigurationPr ovider"


Please post your error message.
