IIS Server, web site and viewing it. *RESOLVED*

[Wokawidget]

I have setup an IIS server, and a default web site Woof.
This works, but when I connect to it, from anywhere, I am asked for a username and password for a user on my 2000 Server machine
How do I get it so anyone can view the site without having to enter usernames and so on.

Try going into the IIS management console (Internet Information Services in Control Panel --> Administratin Tools).
Once you are in there right click on your web site and then click on "properties."
From there click on the "Directory Security" tab and then click the "Edit" button - Make sure the "Allow anonymous access" check box is checked.

That should allow everyone to access your site.

It still doesn't work.

Here's a link to another thread. I have just posted some screen shots of the settings. They are what people have been telling me, but it's not working. Am I missing something?

Resolved.
For some reason windows messed up I think.
I created all the directories and the txt file web site all within 2 mins of each other. I checked the security of the folders and they said everyone has read access. I didn't think about my index.htm file. Just checked it and for some reason it only had the admin user who can do anything with it
Why was the files security policies different?
I didn't manually change them.

Anyways now it allows a normal user to be used as anon access.

Stupid pc. bad woka
