total newb can't access susadmin page
|
|
|
| as stated, i am a complete newb to AD and IIS. but, my boss has asked me to
look into bypassing windows updates and using a push technology. so, i've
got this w2k3 server test box i just built and installed IIS so i could
install SUS. everthing is hunky-dory except that when i go to the susadmin
page, i get a 'not authorized to view' page. at the bottom of the page it
tells me to open inetmgr and use help to search for 'access control', which
i've done. well, it's a huge list. i've tried several of the things that
*looked* relevant, to no avail. i've been through most of the AD looking for
permissions to set, but i mostly don't know what i'm doing. i'm logged on
locally as the admin and anonymous login is enabled.
can anyone please advise?
thx!!

| First, my disclaimer - I'm having a similar problem with my SUS website, I
cannot access it anonymously, but only as an administrator. I've solved your
problem, but not my own, as I will need to get anonymous access working,
since of course not everyone who needs to pull updates is an administrator.
It all used to work, something changed recently to prevent the clients from
retrieving updates, and I've since troubleshooted it down to anonymous access.
Anyway, for you to access the SUSAdmin site, in I.S. Manager, change the
SUSAdmin website to not have anonymous checked, and select Integrated Windows
Authentication. When you are logged on locally as an administrator, you will
authenticate as an administrator when accessing the website, and you're in.
When anonymous is enabled, it trumps all other authentication options - it
tried first, and is maybe failed even before you get the chance to logon
otherwise.

Even better, help someone else out sometime, and that's how it all works.
Everybody's got a piece of the puzzle, and one of my favorite saying, is no
one was born knowing all of this computer stuff.
