Re: IIS problems

What do the IIS logs say? Also enable auditing and check the NT security log
for clues. I had a similar one where someone had manually edited the name of
the anonymous IIS account in web site properties, security and spelled it
wrongly so it didn't match the NT account. This can also occur with the
password.
