Karl Moore Tutorial - Help Please

Hi all, I’m working through a Karl Moore tutorial and I’m stuck…
I would like to know if any one else has done this one? It’s the letmein tutorial designed to help with authentication (page 294 of his book). I have followed the Readme.txt file supplied with his source code. Since I’m still working with the Beta 2 version I can’t load the source code direct. To get the code to work on http://localhost/letmein, the instructions say:

Launch the Internet Services Manager. Branch out the nodes until you reach "Default Web Site". Right-click and select New, Virtual Directory - click Next at the introduction, enter the site name ("letmein"), click Next, specify the path to this folder, click Next, Next again, then Finish

OK that is simple enough, but I keep getting this error, HTTP 403 in my Browser which reads: You are not authorized to view this page. :mad:

My Web Config file contains:

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms>
<credentials passwordFormat="Clear">
<user name="karl" password="moore" />
<user name="strangely" password="brown" />
</credentials>
</forms>
</authentication>

<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>

Can anyone help me?

Thanks for your time. :)

Maybe its a beta 2 thing. I haven't done that tutorial but the code (in the webconfig file) looks correct.

is the harddrive that the virtual directory is on set as ntfs file system or fat32? Had the same problem once and when I changed my harddrive to ntfs, it worked.
