Anonymous access failing when using a fully qualified hostname
|
|
|
| It's been awhile since I configured IIS and I'm having difficulty with
initial setup in our lab.
Anonymous access to a default website works if in a browser i type the alias
hostname for a machine or abbreviated URL, but does not work when I type a
fully qualified hostname in which case I get a user login prompt. I'm trying
to get rid of the user login prompt.
For example:
URL entry: http://webserver (works fine and displays the default page)
UTL entry: http://webserver.rso.gov (prompts for a domain login and after
authenticating, displays the page fine)
URL entry: http://www (works fine and displays the default page)
URL entry: http://www.rso.gov (prompts for a domain login and after
authenticating, displays the page fine)
URL entry: http://IPaddressofwebserver (prompts for a domain login and
after authenticating, displays the page fine)
The webserver name is in dns and also has an alias in dns for www.rso.gov.
The AD domain is also known as rso.gov.

| Hi Brett,
If also Integrated Authentication selected?
Does IUSR account have at least read permissions on the content of your
website? IIS will honor NTFS permission...
Do all above addresses point to same folder on the hard drive? Did you use
host header names or?

| Refer
Intranet site is identified as an Internet site when you use an FQDN or an
IP address
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=303650
make sure you enable anonymous access and the iusr acc has at least READ
permission on the files.

| Agreed. Try adding the FQDN to your browser's Local Intranet zone.
