Not so long ago, I accidentally installed a version of NT4 Server which I now believe was an old msdn version. Either that or something became corrupted during the install. What then happened is exactly as you have described. I actually tried a number of different licenses, with no luck. I...

The error is saying that the password you supplied isn't correct. We had problems using challenge response over an intranet when a proxy was involved. Have you enabled access control on the proxy? If you have, try turning it off, and see if that is causing the problem. IIS does not allow you...

Hi there mousematt. are you running a proxy server of any kind on your intranet?

The server will need to have an external IP address; or if you have a fire-wall installed, a network address translation, to effect an external presence. If you already a working set-up, you need to check the policy on the firewall. If you are using a router to connect your LAN to the net...

The only thing I can think of, that nice bulka, hasn't suggest you try, is to check the ntfs permissions on the winnt directory. If you have set any restrictions on the sub-directories of winnt especially the \system32 directory, you may have inadvertantly prevented access to system files that...

Hi Gerald I am guilty as charged for being slack with back-ups as well. :-) Can you tell me how you changed the property for the site Adminacl?

Hi Gerald. How are you trying to delete this site? if you trying to physically remove it from the hard drive, You may be getting an access violation because of iis processes. It could be a service which has excusively locked access to the a directory or file: the iisadmin, w3svc, or index...
