texte = I liked your idea, however I went into the IIS console and messed around - changing the settings as you said, testing, then trying both basic and anonymous, etc., but it still failed to authenticate.What I finally tried is ridiculous, but worked: I changed my test file suffix from .tmpl to .tpl - for some reason, the [username] and [password] browser variables were not being set on the .tmpl file but was for the .tpl file.The server is set to recognize the two webcat suffixes, so what do you think is causing this? Do I simply have to revert all files back to .tpl suffixes to make it work?I appreciate any help you can offer.John-----Original Message----- From: WebDNA Support To: WebCatalog Talk Date: Monday, May 08, 2000 9:31 AM Subject: Re: Why is [authenticate] not recognizing [username] on all sitedirectories? >>Anyone have suggestions for making custom authentications work on all site >>directories? >> >>The following code works in my database directory (created below the site >>index root) but not in any other directories at the same level.
