Security/Permissions Problem

IIS6 on 2003 Standard Server.

I have my webpage set up adn IIS is running. Locally the webpage appears.
Outside requests are challanged for username and password. The local
administrator account works. I've created other local accounts to test but
they are not granted access.

How do I allow outside requests anonymous access without challange?

Thanks!

Re: Security/Permissions Problem

change the authentication method to enable anonymous access.

Oops. If it already is, is my IIS program messed up?

Re: Security/Permissions Problem

not necessarily. also make sure the internet guest account has access to
the directories. it might also help someone else get more specific if you
stated what version of iis you are running and more about your os and
network.

If you want to allow anonymous access, then enable anonymous
authentication, which works by default. If it doesn't, then you need to
look at the IIS log file for the error encountered during anonymous
authentication. Depending on the error codes, determine the resolution.
It is pretty straight-forward to diagnose most IIS issues; no guessing
necessary.
