Permissions for ASPNET Account

Hi All,
I've recently install the framework on a web server (First 'production' one
I've done)
Should the ASPNET account have read/write access to the web root and beyond?
Or just the areas where I'll use asp.net? Or perhaps just read access? (With
write access to specific areas where maybe txt files are amended?)
Would appreciate a little guideance.
Thanks!
Simon.It should have whatever permissions it needs to do what it needs to do; no
more, and no less.
