I set up a virtual directory within the default web site.
Clicked this virtual directory and went to properties-
>Directory Security->Edit Enable anonymouse access->ensure
enable anonymous access is checked and using iusr_machine
with correct passwd.

But when I try to access this virtual directory from
internet, it requires me password. My default web site
contents can be accessed without problem
(authentication). I also went to the actual folder that
holds the files for the virutal directory. Right clicked
the folder and got into the properties, made sure the
folder allows the "iusr" user basic viewing controls.

Please help. Thank you
