This is gonna be a tricky one. Im migrating from using Apache HTTP server 1.3.xx to IIS 6.0 in Win2003 Enterprise Server.
What I need, Is someone that can explain to me step by step, about the account addressing scheme in windows 2003 combined with the access to resources on the machine.
The server is NOT a domain controller or member of a domain
There is no use of active directory.
The server is member of the workgroup “shadow”.
I have created a website for “www.youngguns.dk” with its respective header.
I have set permissions for the folder \www\html\members to require basic authentication and disabled anonymous access.
I have then allowed access permissions (all read) to this folder by “Clan YG members” group along with inherited permissions (administrator from root).
Now the questions is how the hell do I address a correct user account.
Apache uses authorization on a application level, however seems that IIS uses authorization on OS/network level.
It will not even allow YG-Server\administrator or just administrator.
How do I define correct users and address them during login? Any help here will be greatly appreciated!
L8r,
Kenneth
