    We have set up IIS with a number of IP restrictions. We do not know all the
    IPs of our group, and so we want to send IPs not in the group to a customized
    page where they can apply for inclusion.

    Right now, the only thing a non-admitted IP will see is the local browser's
    403.htm error message, which resides here:

    ://C:\WINDOWS\system32\shdoclc.dll/http_403.htm

    The Custom Errors tab in the IIS admin interface does not list error 403.htm
    - although that page is in the directory, and it appears impossible to
    customize using the IIS interface.

    Does anyone know of a workaround to stop users being given the file from
    their local machine and given something more helpful?

    Thanks!
