hi
Well what i ment was in IIS for this virtual directory, we have
authentication set to Anonymous access with IUSER_<MachineName> and
Window Integated.
In the website internally, we have a login module which is
authenticated with data stored in the database (Which i have written
by code).
about the situations :
1. Logged in as IISUSER (in Power Users group) on the local server and
access the website - No access Locally as well as from a remote
machine. Gives a 401.2 error (HTTP 401.2 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed
Due to Server Configuration with No Authentication)
2. Logged in as IISUSER (in Admininstrators group) on the local server
and
access the website - Able to access the complete site locally as well
as from a remote machine. No problems at all.
3. On any other machine, anonymously access the website remotely -
When we log in on the server as IISuser (in Power Users group), no
access and when we log in on the server as IISuser (in Admininstrators
group), ... get complete access and site works fine.
All NTFS permissions are granted to both Logins and read access to
everyone. I know my problem is wierd ... but somehow i have to solve
it.
Cheers
Neo
