December 2, 200421 yr Is the UserID IUSR_computername?If so ...Click Start>Administrative Tools>Internet Information ServicesExpand the left tree, right-click your WebSite>PropertiesClick on Directory Security, then in "Anonymous access and authentication control" click on EditTick "Allow IIS to control password", then OK and come out of IIS.
December 2, 200421 yr If that doesn't work, you could back up your data, uninstall then reinstall IIS, that should resolve the problem as well.
December 3, 200421 yr Author thnx for ur replies i ll try both the methods n inform u guys if it helps.... its a user id of a diff comp on the lan one thing i forgot to mention is i kept on toggling between 4-5 ip addresses n mac addresses n computer names (was trying out some lan stuff) ... well could that be related to this ??
