Answer 1

Do not search for the user account. Type the user name directly into the "Login name" box of the New Login dialog. The format is "IIS AppPool\{poolname}".

If you use the Search feature, the search will resolve IIS AppPool\{poolname} and return COMPUTER\{poolname} to the New Login dialog. COMPUTER\{poolname} doesn't exist, but IIS AppPool\{poolname} does.

Just type it in.
