Username and password required

Did you also set the Password attribute to AutoGenerate? That's all I got for ya...

Hi All,

I have just managed to setup a windows 2003 server, along with IIS6 and the .NET framework. I created a basic application to test it, but when I try to run it all I get is the windows Authentication popup box asking me for UserName and Password. Am I missing something out here? How do I stop it?

I have set the <processmodel> attribute username to 'System',which I thought may have solved my problem, but still get the Windows Authetication box?

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Marko

Thanks guys for the answers,

I did have the password set to Autogenerate in the machine.config.

As far as Security logs go I looked in the Event viewer and could not see anything there - Is this what you meant bruce?

I have managed to get it working, but I'm not sure of the security risk that I may have compromised, heres the steps I took :

1. run inetmgr
2. go to virtual directory
3. right click --> Properties
4. select Directory Security tab
5. check the box that says 'enable anonymous access', which is IUSR_MACHINENAME
6. Integrated windows authentication was already checked
7. Click 'Apply', then 'Ok'

Tried the site from a remote machine and i worked fine?

To be honest with you I dont really understand security and acces. I thought that when setup IIS and the dotnet framework, then web site authentication was setup for you for when you create virtual directories?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Marko.

 

He is logging on to his own server throught the web. The security Of WinNet 2003 reconnize this as a local lan connection. So it will ask a network username and password. If the security of WinNet 2003 see's if a remote computer is accessing the data it will not ask for a local lan username and password.

This above rule holds true with Win 2000 Server with IIS 5.0 installed. I personally run IIS 5.0 but I was a beta tester for WinNet 2003 RC1 and RC2 for a year
