I would open Sharepoint Administrator and choose the administration of
my website (www.website.com for example). I would then go into
Mangage users|add a user and enter my user information
(domain\webmaster) in the Add user or group name (For example,
DOMAIN\name). I would choose the administrator role and click on add
user. As I mentioned earlier, the user has Full Control rights to the
website directory on the server.

I then try to go into Frontpage and access the website. A username
and password prompt come up and I would try the webmaster account.
The user name and password prompt would keep coming back unless I
would use my domain admin account. At that point I can get in and
administer the website.

Thanks,

Mike
