IIS Authentication Problem?

Since '95 I have been a contractor develoing applications using Borland
Delphi (Object Pascal) creating win32 C/S stuff.
Having recently completed amy last contract I decided to try my hand at
dotNet stuff.
I downloaded the trial version of Visual Studio 2003. So far I learned some
C# for win32.
I like C# very much (very similar to Object Pascal) and want to extend my
experience to ASP.NET
web applications.
Via Visual Studio 2003, when I attempt to "File>New>Visual C#
Projects>ASP.NET Web Application"
into "http:/localhost/MyFirstWebApp"
I get the response:
"The Web server reported the following error when attempting to create or
open the Web project located at the following URL:
'http://localhost/WebApplication1'. 'The server returned an invalid or
unrecognized response'."

So I figured that there must be an authentication problem.
I snooped around this forum and tried every thing previously sugggested such
as uninstalling and reinstalling the prerequisites and VS2003 in the proper
sequence without any success.
The rean across the "AuthDiag" tool.
I ran it. with the results below.

I am running 1 laptop on XP Pro with a wireless MS WorkGroup network
connecting to the internet.

I can't tell if the diagnostics below are related to an SMTP Domain or a
network Domain.
Question:

I don't know how to approach any of the diagnostics below!
Which domain is it referring to and how do I correct the problem?
I need to remove all negative diagnostics!
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Les

Dear Lex,

What happens if you put //localhost in a browser? Also you should have integrated security enabled. You also may want to make sure FP Extentions are working correctly. Welcome to .Net.

Calvin,
Thans for your prompt reply!

1. When I enter http://localhost or //localhost into a browser,
it takes a few minutes to respond with "Cannot find server" in the title bar
and "Page Cannot be displayed" in the body of the browser.

2. On the IIS Snapin in MMC, I Right Click on the "Default Web Site" folder,
Click Properties, Go to the "Directory Security" Tab,
Click Edit on the "Anonmous access and authentication control".
"Integrated Windows Authentication" is checked.
So I think that what you mean when you mentioned "you should have integrated
security enabled"

3. In "Add/Remove Windows components" in the details of IIS,
the "Front Page 2000 Server Extensions" are checked.
So they are installed.
Being new to this stuff, I don't yet know how to confirm that they are
working correctly.

Thanks,
Les

I think that I may have found some clues as to the problem:

In MMC (ver 2.0) while viewing the "Front Page Server Extensions" Snap-in
that is in folder
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\40\BIN\"

Right click on the folder "/LM/W3SVC/1:",
select "Explore" and the folder "C:\inetpub\wwwroot" opens in explorer.
This may be ok but I don't understand why it is named "/LM/W3SVC/1:" in MMC.

Right click on the folder "/LM/W3SVC/1:" again,
select "All Tasks" then "Check Server Extensions"
then a dialog pops up with the message:
"The server administration programs and the server extensions on the web
server are not compatible.
The administration program is too old to use with the server."

I am researching what I can do to corrrect this problem.
Currently FP2000 extensions are installed.
I would like to Upgrade to FP2002 or later extensions.

The file versions that are currently installed are:
fpmmc.msc    is ver 4.0.2.8912
fp4awel.dll  is ver 4.0.2.8912

fpexedll.dll is ver 4.0.2.7523
fp4avss.dll  is ver 4.0.2.7523
fp4autl.dll  is ver 4.0.2.7523
fp4atxt.dll  is ver 4.0.2.7523
fp4areg.dll  is ver 4.0.2.7523
cfgwiz.exe   is ver 4.0.2.7523
fpremadm.exe is ver 4.0.2.7523
fpsrvadm.exe is ver 4.0.2.7523
tcptest.exe  is ver 4.0.2.7523

fp4anwi.dll  is ver 4.0.2.4715
FP4AWEC.DLL  is ver 4.0.2.4715

VI40Wrp.dll  is ver 4.0.2.2813

fpencode.dll is ver 1997.5.27.0
