What are the account requirements for aspx pages to be accessed anonymously 
on Windows 2003 server?.

When I view my aspx page in a browser locally or remotely I always get promp
ted for user and password. When I provide credentials for user in the admin 
group the page displays correctly.

I do not get prompted when viewing .htm files.

I would like to make the aspx pages available anonymously.

Here are my settings:

NTFS Directory Security:
Administrators - Full Control
ASP.NET Machine Account - Read & Execute, List, Read
Internet Guest Account - Read & Execute, List, Read
System - Full Control

Virtual Directory Tab:
Read - checked
Execute permissions - Scripts only

Authentication and access control:
Enable anonymous access - checked
User name: IUSR_COMPUTER_NAME
Basic Authentication - Not checked

Thank you in advance.

Does it work when you enter a correct credentials set? This means that
Aspx engine requires some additional permissions to be tuned for ASP.NET
user - please check this using FileMon Utility from
