OK - I have IIS 5 on a member server. The files are set at the NTFS level
to 'authenticated users' (RX) and the IIS folder is set to 'basic
authentication' ONLY. I have SSL required for this folder. I am trying to
allow only valid AD users to visit this page:

1) can a user whose account is DISABLED view this page? I thought no, but
today it seems to work
2) in the past an account that was marked 'user must change password at next
logon' could NOT access this page, but now that seems to work too
3) if an account has it's password expire, can that account visit my web
page?

Does anyone have any references on the connection between AD IDs and IIS
authentication?

Thanks, as always
Blake
