Allow anonymous access between times

| Hi Is there any setting in Windows 2K3 or IIS 6 that can allow my
public website only to be accessed between certain times/days.
Rather than scedule the service teh stop is there anyway to serve a
custom error and deny access to the pages.
Thanks.

| Hi,
When I need such feature, I usually do it on a network firewall. See if your
firewall supports such feature.

| You still need scheduler to helps you.
Rather than stopping the services, why not have a dummy site?
so what you will do at certain time period is:
a) stop the production website
b) start the notification website (predefined)
then reverse the order when it is time to open up the production website...
or if you are comfortable with coding, you always can check the time at the
web page itself.

| Thanks for the replies.
I think the firewall is best but Id like some custom page for the user.
I know ISA can do this scheduling but i dont think cisco does.

This sounds like what I want, I can make two websiets in IIS but how
would I script this stop/start action ? Would I need to script it then
schedule the vbscript?

I am comforabkle with the code, but would just rather have a higher
level managed solution that is independant of the source code.
