permissions issue

Someone here monkey-ed with the settings on the authentication method on our
internal website. They changed the account used for the 'enable anonymous
access' from the IUSER account to the local admin. I do not know the
password for the IUSER account, what should I do?

Re: permissions issue

ok I changed it to the IUSER, I suppose you don't need a password? Anyways,
now it is telling me I'm not authorized to view this page.

Re: permissions issue

First, reset it at computer management, then specify the same user
credential at IIS MMC - directory property......
