All I ask of the IT people is to not touch anything. Unfortunately, they don't listen. Anyone know what causes this dilemma: I can access my sites in FP without trouble if I use the DOS path, ie, machinename\wwwroot\mysite\. However, if I enter http://ourintranetname/mysite/ I get prompted for my NT credentials, which are then rejected and the site won't open. _____________________________ Duane Some people are like Slinkies . . .

If youve got Frontpage access, then it could be a simple job to open up permissions from the security center there _____________________________ If you arent part of the solution, then there is good money to be made prolonging the problem ��k� Database / DRW help Check out the Tutorials for Frontpage Databases Forum FAQ' s Developers Edition Spooky Login User Registration and Management tool Personalized Frontpage Hosting (in reply to BeTheBall)

I have a test page that writes the logon_user value and it still works, but no luck gaining access to the web via its http address. _____________________________ Duane Some people are like Slinkies . . .

I diito that. Have you tried Remote Desktop to it under your FP authoring account? I've been able to sneak in before that way.

If so, this site has always been nt authenticated access. _____________________________ Duane Some people are like Slinkies . . . Not really good for anything . . . . .

You need authentication turned on (usually) to use FP but most of the other stuff needs anonymous. This is how I setup one of my Intranet sites and I use authentication features as well as anonymous.

Not sure what they have done, but they have really messed up this one site. This is a development server so I do all my coding live on the server. Now anytime I edit a file and try to save I get the "Server error: Cannot rename file.asp" message. This site has subwebs that do not give me that message, so whatever they have done appears specific to this web. I think you are right on as far as needing to turn NT authentication and anonymous access on at the server, but now I need to get around this latest glitch. Life is so much better at home where I control the server. _____________________________ Duane Some people are like Slinkies . . . Not really good for anything . . . . .

Only way to get round that thar glitch is to have the following info: Server Name (usually same as network name) Admin User ID of the server Admin Password for the server. Enter them in the login box (putername/username) should log you into the server machine via IIS with full access. If that dont work, get a new server 7 IT department _____________________________ (in reply to BeTheBall)
