Re: Flaw in default permissions

Its really quite an important documentation error. When something is not
working, I look to go back to the defaults. If the documentation about the
defaults is wrong, troubleshooting becomes much more difficult.

Mixture of Documentation errors and "backwards compatibility" cruft.

This is how basic/anon authentication, network_cleartext, and "Logon
Locally" all fit together.

Furthermore, the document says that Anon also requires the Logon Locally
right. However another document:

explains that in IIS6 basic and anon authentication by default use the
NETWORK_CLEARTEXT method which does not require Logon Locally rights.
Any comments on that one?

The documentation states that the IUSR account by default has Read,
Execute NTFS permissions to the web site folders:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=812614
I have done many default installations and it does not. It just has a
Deny Write. Any comments? Is that just a straightforward documentation
error?
