    Are those users allowed to LOGON to the server?? If they can't, they will
    fail no matter what authentication or file ACL you choose.

    Access is controlled by configuration and policy. FileSystem ACL dictates
    the user accounts required, Authentication Protocol controls the user
    accounts that can access, and Policy controls whether those user accounts
    function and in what manner.

I've setup a website using Basic Authentication and SSL in IIS 5. The only
people that can be authenticated are people with administrative rights,
despite the fact that the file security on the wwwroot folder allows
Everyone
read access. Does anyone know why members of the User group can't
authenticate?
