Site using Basic authentication and SSL requiring Admin rights
|
|
| Gearhead 2004-11-22, 5:50 pm |
| 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?

| 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.
