I am having trouble enabling anonymous access to my site. I have
enabled anonymous access in IIS MMC snapin. I have enabled guest
access in SCA. This guest account is running as a local user with the
following setup:

- Member local domain admin group
- Local domain admin group is in the CMS administrators rights group
- Member of CMS subscribers group, this group having access to all
channels/resources/templates.

When I configured the CMS guest account, the Windows NT User Browser
returned no domains in its dropdown, and hence I couldn't pick a user.
Instead I manually entered the [local domain]\[username].

I think this may be the place where it is failing, since if I switch
IIS to use windows integrated security, and log in as the admin user
(who is the same user configured as guest user), then the site works.

Many thanks for any help.

Mark

Hi Mark,

in the domains drop down list should be the list of domains you entered in
the access tab.
If this does not come up, then there might be a problem with your MCMS
system account.
Does this account have enumeration rights in the domains you added to the
access tab?

Cheers,
Stefan.
