I assume you required a username/password to access the directory from the IIS management app; however you have .html mapped to WebCat. By directly requesting the mapped file, you are going around the IIS security. You should be using WebCat security to protect your files, not IIS security.HTHJohn-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
