Author NNTP anonymous user account doesn't exist on E2k

I've installed Exchange 2000, and have set up some public folders for
internet based access via a NNTP client. It all works correctly if the user
logs in. However, I want this setup to use anonymous access.

Even though the permissions are correctly set, clients attempting to connect
using anonymous access fail, and on the server an event is thrown into the
log as follows:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: NNTPSVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 100
Date: 4/9/2004
Time: 11:04:43 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER2
Description:
The server was unable to logon the Windows NT account 'IUSR_SERVER2' due to
the following error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

This machine is also a domain controller, and the account it is referencing
doesn't even exist! I've seen this problem with previous versions, but I
cannot locate WHERE I have to go to reset the account being used for
anonymous access. Any suggestions?

Cliff
