Thanks for the reply.

This is running on Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP 3
(5.00.2195).

I tried to get the Permissions Verifier tool you mentioned
in your first post but the web site said the download was
unavailable.

Windows Integrated Authentication is selected for the sub-
directory and the Everyone group has full control in the
ACL (the _Web Anonymous Users and _Web Applications users
are denied write access).

However, I have made a new discovery. The Challenge-
Response box only pops up when I configure my ASP.NET
application (v1.1) to use https for authentication.
Like so:
                <authentication mode="Forms">
                        <forms name=".kb_admin"
loginUrl="https://servername/parent/sub/login.aspx"
path="/">
                        </forms>
                </authentication>

If I change it to loginURL="/parent/sub/login.aspx" and
then manually change the url to use https when .NET
redirects me to the login page, the page comes up without
the dialog box.

The crazy thing is I use https in the loginURL in several
other applications just fine. Could this some kind of
weird issue with ASP.NET?

Thanks,
Mike
