Author Users cannot download files from site

Hello,


We just converted our site to IIS6 from IIS5 or win2k to win2k3. Now none of
the users can download .exe files or any .bpf files. If we type in the url
http://www.mysite.com/virtualdirect...es/filename.bpf we get a 404
error. Is there some setting in IIS6 that needs to be set to allow this?
Thanks in advance.

You have to add a new MIME type for *.bpf as described in
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/...imemapcfg.mspx.
