Permissions required to create / modify tasks in the Windows Task Scheduler

Question

I need to create and modify tasks in the Windows Task Scheduler on Windows Server 2003 from an ASP.NET web application. The network service running the web application cannot make changes. These are errors with a System.UnauthorizedAccessException exception.

It works fine from Visual Studio on my desktop.

What permissions are required to grant an account so that tasks can be changed from ASP.NET?
