Hi,

We have a company website that we had setup. I am trying to add a virtual
directory and make it password accessable. This directory will be accessed
by external agents only. Could someone point me in the direction of what I
need to do here.

Thanks In Advance,
Eric

Open the MMC.

Find the site.

Establish where the virtual folder contents are; d:\webstuff\files\ or
whatever.

Right click on the web site in the MMC.

Go to "New" then "Virtual folder".

Browse to the folder.

Press OK.

Then go back and right click on it and in the "Security" tab, uncheck
"anonymous access". That will make it request a user and password. Then
you have to set up all the users and passwords on the server.
