Hi. Just setup my Windows 2003 server as an App Server running IIS 6.0 for
use with ASP.NET apps and other web stuff. After configuring IIS websites
with IP addresses and setting permissions through IIS and NTFS for access to
my ASP apps, I cannot access my websites using Anonymous access but only with
IWA. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

If you uncheck IWA and enable anonymous access, what do you get when you
access your ASP apps. Look at the IIS log file as well.

I have unchecked the IWA and enabled anonymous access, and I receive HTTP
error 401.1 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.
Internet Information Services (IIS).

This error occurs not only on my ASP website but also on my HTML webs. After
setting the NTFS permissions for the ASP content subdirectories, what other
tweaks need to be made to get the sites open to the Internet with anonymous
access.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like anonymous account password is out of sync or locked up or denied
logon. Anything in event log ? try enable security audit and see if it gives
you more clues.

Bernard,

Good Call!! The anonymous account password WAS out of sync w/AD & IIS. Once
synched, access became available. Thanks for your help!

Have a great summer solstice!
