    : I just wanted to address the points you raised by using Basic / Integrated
    : Authentication with IIS, and also with having to authenticate on the
    "first"
    : page versus subsequent pages, and about clearing the cache. None of those

    I agree.

    : I was not
    : trying to "exclude the other particulars", but rather explain why I do not
    : think some of the issues raised where not relevant.

    Ok, I misunderstood your comment.

    : I agree that the situation you are in is a bit odd.

    Well, I'm no longer in it but because I was, I do not feel comfortable it
    will not reoccur.

    : I'm struggling to think
    : of a reason why you might have been seeing the behaviour that you were. As
    : Roger Abell has mentioned, perhaps the in-memory cached copy of the ASP
    page
    : was somehow corrupt. Rebooting the box would have completely cleared that
    : cache.

    Thanks Ken. If I give the wrong password for sa will it cache that response
    for the file? I wasn't sure of the password as I never use sa for anything
    and knew it as not blank. After it failed, I set the password so I would
    know what it was, but it still failed. That's when I started testing.
    However, during all this, the other files never failed although I don't
    think I tried them with the bad password [if it was bad in the beginning].
    With that timeline, the file [StraightASP.asp] that was failing appears to
    have been cached and tied to that filename and after the password was
    correct, the other files worked because they were not in the cache. That
    would also make sense as to why renaming the file would then work but the
    old filename would not since that file was cached.

    I wonder if anyone can confirm that it caches the filename with the
    authentication and until released, refuses additional credentials. It
    doesn't sound like it is working by design. Sounds more like what Oracle
    calls a 'feature.' (O:=
