    Thank you for the reply! Looking at my web.config file I dont have this
    "identity impersonate="true"" section and also it says to "security
    mechanism to Anonymous only" - where do I find this security mechanism, and
    how would i set the identity impersonate setting?

    -------------
    When the Web.config file is set to identity impersonate="true"/ and
    authentication mode="Windows", use the Anonymous account with the following
    settings: . On the ASPX page, set the security mechanism to Anonymous only.
          . Clear the Allow IIS to control the password check box.
          . Set the Anonymous account to be a domain user.

    -------------

    Cheers
    Grant
