Cant access sub-directories after installing SSL cert

My client just installed an SSL cert on IIS 5.0/Windows 2000 server. We can
access the root directory and default document and all files residing in
the root just fine via http/https.

However, when we try to directly address a file in the images directory
with http or https access directly, we are prompted to authenticate - if we
cancel we get a 401.3 Access denied by ACL on resource error. If the proper
credentials are entered, we can access the resource.
Example: http(s)://www.ourserver.com/images/image_name.gif

When the default document loads from the root directory, it can access the
images that are stored in the images directly without any prompt to
authenticate.

I'm thinking this is probably just a simple permissions problem...Does
anyone have any insight into this?

Thanks,
Justin

Re: Cant access sub-directories after installing SSL cert

Does the anonymous user has READ permission on the image file?
don't think this is related to SSL.
